Captain Sully Baby Spoon



This was a design in the making for a long time...long before the Hero Sullenberger landed the plane on the Hudson River.
However, it came to fruition around the same time, and speaks to the herores in all of us, or the unborn heroes of the future.
So, here is the Captain Sully baby spoon-to inspire the little ones in your life...or just make eating more magic.

Finally, the torques are ready


these pieces were originally created in steel. While studying Blacksmithing with Bob Oakes at the Cold Hanworth Forge and Blacksmithing School in Lincolnshire, UK, we twisted steel bar, hammered out the edges and created the models. It took years and hundreds of dollars to mold them from steel, to bronze and finally to pewter. They are coming out now in all one of a kind necklaces called BLACK BONES. The pewter and bronze chain are arranged and finally dipped in gunmetal, gold, and rhodium finishes, for everyone to frugally fabulous in time for the Holdiay Party Season.

inspiration


I am a huge fan of the Flemish art. Having worked in Amsterdam for several years, I came to appreciate the great contributions of the Dutch and their predecessors, the Flemish. Heirynomous Bosch is one of the most amazing artists to have ever lived. If only he could have made films. But his restraints helped him create the most amazing visual narratives perhaps ever painted. Necessity is the mother of invention.
In his wake, Jan Van Eyck maintained that perfect humors of Bosch, and after him Vermeer, painted contrast of light shown through everyday experience years before the invention of the camera.
There are many great works left to create in this world, but for now, kudos to the great work that has come before and Adobe Photoshop, for making silly thought in ones head a reality.
