i'm living in the wrong era

browsing around etsy, i came across the glorius seller timelessvixenvintage who sells an exquisite collection of uncommon rare pieces from the 1870s to the 1970s.

i'm speechless at the sight of these - especially the coats!


















yep. i'm in love.

new diary for a new year.

oh my claws!

this find via bona drag deserved it's own post.

a brilliant collaboration between pamela love and black sheep prodigal sons.




the claws are carved out of 10-30,000 year old fossilized Siberian woolly mammoth tusk bark. the cuff is oxidized solid sterling silver, with 6 small black diamonds set as a triangle on the palm of the talon. limited to 14 pieces, numbered in scrimshaw on one of the claws. comes with a 4 inch glass dome and black wood base display with laser engraving.

absolutely magnificent.

can someone lend me $2950 please? i'll pay you back later...

incredible

note: don't buy this, or any item from kayokokoswimwear.com
long story short- my saga with them lasted three months, and in the end i never received my item and lost $50 worth of my payment.
