Look what arrived in the post today from my gorgeous Canadian friend Katrocket!!!
This Glorious Artifact is a belt buckle immortalising my gurning nephew in pure Titian Crystal®, surrounded by diamonds and blue fairy dust from Mars. In years to come I plan to gift this treasure to his future spouse as a wedding gift.
You too can commission the supremely talented Beevers to make you a customised wearable item featuring your favourite person/dog/vase.

Lulu! So glad you like your buckle, and thank you for your praise. That fairy dust was a bit tough to source, but worth the trouble we think.
ReplyDeleteThat Katrocket is something special, isn't she? I hope someday you can enjoy her fine cocktails and sweet caustic wit in person.

ReplyDeleteI wonder how they managed to stay away from London Fashion Week? It's the accessory de jour!!!
ReplyDeleteIs it a Jetsons style elliptoid or is that lens distortion?
