I have always loved to travel… and shop!… especially to places in Asia and Africa that are not in the spotlight. Every time I came back from jaunts to those destinations, I filled my suitcase with little pieces… pieces of handmade art… to remind me of the hidden corners of the world I discovered!
The exquisite craftsmanship exhibited in these pieces of art, whether a table cloth, a vase, a chess set or a necklace is simply magnificent!… truly astounding detail that makes even high-end mass produced items seem merely OK.
The places I travel to have become my home and the artists my friends. These artists remind me of the Greek architects who were working on temples when the Romans conquered Greece. They asked the new rulers for permission to finish their work even without pay though those buildings were at that point Roman buildings… they did that because, just like my friends, producing art is their passion!
Now I am here!.. and what started as a hobby became my business, or should I say my passion.. Here in California near the beach, thousands of miles away from the where these pieces were created, with the help and encouragement of the company’s CEO Michael, this website is our way to make you part of the experience… to introduce to you a piece of “art for every corner of your home”.. Wonderful handmade art for you… and your home.
I do not know what pieces of art this website will have tomorrow nor can I guarantee that I will have any piece again after it sells out, but I can guarantee that this website will always be the one place where you will find art like no other, whether to give the most unique gift for a special occasion, give your home décor a facelift or treat yourself to a unique one of a kind handmade accessory.
