Handsome Griffin

My website has been revamped! 40 New Arrivals including this handsome porcelain griffin from Fitz and Floyd have been posted. Take a look here

Have a great weekend and Happy Shopping!

Mysterious Millicent

Meet Mysterious Millicent, my most recent creation. She is a very old mourning oil painting on canvas that I framed in a magnificent antique blackened frame. She got tired of years of mourning so I gave her a mask and now she is ready for the Masquerade Ball, still a bit forlorn though I'm afraid, but oh so haunting! She is available and could become an instant family member on your walls so email if you want her to live at your house....

Beatrice

Meet Beatrice, a large, haunting 1920's bust I found at an antique faire recently. She was Dante's love interest way back when and inspired many of his famous writings throughout his life even though they both married other people. She was previously owned by Charles Gerhardt, famous conductor and producer who conducted many famous classic film scores including Star Wars. She was purchased from his estate sale after his death in 1999. Bittersweet!

Happy New Year!

I was able to get away on a little hunting trip over the holidays and found this fabulous old robotic mannequin. She moved into my shop on New Years Day, fit right into the haunting atmosphere and has become a big hit already. From around the 1930's-40's, plug her in and she comes alive, moving her arms back and forth over the tarot cards while her head turns both ways. She looks like the Bionic Woman inside, full of old machine works and gears. She must have been a fortune teller back in the Good Old Days, I have never seen one like this before. She lives at my shop now so come visit often and ask for a demonstration.

More new arrivals from my recent trip are posted here and on the website.

Thanks for all your support and kind comments in 2008 and have a Wonderful New Year!

The Devil's Toolbox

It has been a long time tradition to give the man of the house a new toolbox for Christmas....but sometimes untraditional gifts are more fun... How about surprising HIM with The Devil's Toolbox under the tree this year...

Overflowing with rare 19th century tools and otherworldly, unearthly delights, this antique toolbox is sure to put a big, wicked smile on his face!

Everything fits in nice and compact and the box locks up with an old Masters lock! Update - Sold to Brooklyn Girl in New York!

Lots more new arrivals have been posted on my website in the different categories, especially in Boudoir....take a look.

Happy Holidays!
