The Bottle Lady of Burlington takes glass bottles and melts (or slumps is the technical term) the bottles into cheese boards, serving trays, bowls, relish dishes, spoon rests, etc. It’s a great way to reuse, reduce, recycle.

Great conversation pieces or just cool, unique art work.

Howard’s Entertainment

Having just returned from a harrowing travels to lands of equatorial territory. My trusty armadillo eating road crew and I have amassed a collection only the finest steam fittings and salvage from travel vessels. As the smoke from the cutting torches rose into the night I busied myself collecting uniforms, garments and covers from the crews’ quarters. I may bring a chest or two of something for the ladies tastes in black leather of course. For those seeking a luxury vintage I bring mens accessories from my private Pullman car. No more time for chat I need to shovel more coal and add water to the belching beast. Regards Col Mustard

Custom Fairy Wings

Victorians were obsessed with the supernatural: spiritual healing, ghosts and FAIRIES! It follows that a Neo-Victorian would also be curious about the clockwork “Good Folk” flitting about the garden. As a Lepidopterist, artisan May Burnett has seen these wee creatures and, after much scientific observation, have created fairy catching kits so that others may discover their beauty and magic. The wings she creates mirror the natural beauty of the fairies she has studied and act as perfect camouflage whilst out hunting!

_________________________________

Coquina Arts

The earliest artists were shamans, who used art to maximize positive
energy for the tribe. These ancient practices developed into systems
(such as Feng Shui) which artfully employ design to focus energy and
create harmony. This tradition inspires and informs the works created by
Coquina Arts – works that are aesthetically beautiful, symbolically
potent and personally significant.

Like the speculative nostalgia of Steampunk, these talismans re-frame
potent symbols of ages past in the context of forward-looking
potentialities. In this way they connect something deep in our psyches
to the esoteric energy of paradox.

Choose from Coquina Arts’ more popular images, or inquire about having a
piece custom designed for your own environment.

It is a world in which creative people work with their hands and their heads; it is a world in which machines and industries are built with parts that move, and parts that don’t. Land and sea are traveled in wondrous machines, often made by hand. And the sky is filled with airships of amazing construction. Time is understood in a way that 21st century people cannot fathom. The taverns are filled with ladies of style, wisdom and sass, and with strong-handed men with nimble brains.

It is a place that you should visit!
