Recycled Windshield Glasses

The greenish hue of these glasses is quite nice, and the fact that they are recycled makes them even nicer.

Handmade in Colombia of recycled glass from old car windows…Sturdy and strong, the thick glass has a slight green hue from the tint originally added to lessen the sun’s glare. Beautiful and interesting, these glasses will please everyone from the environmentalist to the car enthusiast. Each is one of a kind and will vary.

Double Stray light

Here’s a rather nice textured pendant to shed light in a corner or above a dining table.

Double Stray is a flexible white ceiling lamp inspired by the simplicity and translucence of Chinese paper lanterns. Packaged flat, the piece unfolds accordion-style to reveal an intricate moiré pattern. The name Double Stray is derived from the two overlapping line grids that serve as both the focal point of the lampshade’s visual style as well as the source of its structural integrity.

Tyvek with white hanging cord.

Fair & Square Pillow

I heart this embroidered pillow- for the script on front, yes, and also for the embroidery on the back (click on link to see detail).

Our over-sized Fair & Square pillow is an embroidered cushion in Chinese hemp. The cushion’s deco-design was developed by FairTrade Designers with inspiration from traditional ethnic chinese embroidery and Danish embroidered tradition with the ‘Home Sweet Home’ cushion, which carries a message that signals personal values.

Available in collegiate lettering or script.
The back side of each pillow is brightly embroidered with the name & hand print of the person who made it.

Official Ballot Wall Art

Since today is the inauguration for our next president, I thought it only appropriate to post one of many, many items commemorating the event.

This oversized ballot was printed specifically for the old-fashioned, pull-lever voting machines used in New York City. These hulking gray machines have been in commission since 1962 and after 46 years of service, are slated to go into retirement this year. We are fortunate to have a limited number of these official, uncut, unused ballots. Sections of the ballot feature voting instructions and a full list of candidates and parties.

37″ x 45″ x 1.5″ D
estimated ship date January 30th.
