"Wild at Heart" by Vintage Sculpture

Made in Iowa by Vintage Sculpture - these just arrived in time for Valentine's Day. Two large wall-hung pieces, along with several smaller ones with houses, trees and hearts. Made from a mix of found objects, painted and embellished wood - this one with a horse shoe.

Peapod jewelry by Ala Jaron

"As long as I can remember, I have expressed myself through art. I always had to create something, whether it was oil painting, ceramics, sculpture, fused glass or simple wreathes made out of loose branches I would collect at Christmas time. When I was introduced to jewelry design, it came very natural to me." Ala brings a unique view to her work in its organic forms and textures. She creates using the techniques of fabrication, surface texture and soldering of metals. Each piece is hand fabricated from the raw metal and then set with semi-precious stones and pearls. As a last touch, Ala adds patina to give her work a rich, aged appearance. Ala Jaron, being a self-taught artist, has been designing jewelry full time since 1993. She lives and works out of her home in Chicago.

ceramic constructions by Art Department

Sprouted in New York City almost 10 years ago, Art Department is the brainchild of artists Felix Kniazev & Olga Julinska. Their goal? "To make positive connections through our artwork: to delight our viewers, to make them stop and wonder". With backgrounds in painting, sculpture, graphic design, printmaking, photography, theatre design and jewelry making, the pair have found a niche with work that is, as they put it, "...whimsical, yet distinguished by a precise, graphic quality and high contrast vivid colors". Art Department has grown into two studios, one in Boston, and a recent expansion to the Green Mountains in Vermont.

Much of the work by this studio is available only in limited edition. Other buildings, including custom work are available. Please contact us for more information.
