Ironic Dish Ware...

I am so loving this dish ware by LA PHILIE.
Evelyn Bracklow hand paints vintage china pieces to look as though they are becoming infested with ants.. in the most beautiful way possible.

To me, it makes me think of the original use; and users of the beautiful china.  As though a biscuit crumb or drop of honey was left behind, and is just now getting discovered by ants, and by us.

I mean, I would totally understand if this isn't your thing..
but I'm slightly obsessed

About Me

My photo
All of my items are hand crafted by me in my Brooklyn, NY studio. I believe in USA hand made, supporting local, and supporting quality. All materials I use are sourced and purchased from vendors in the USA. I truly am inspired so much by nature. Just walk outside and there's millions of things to be inspired by, whether city or country. At different points in my life, or year, or day I can look at the same thing and see it in a completely new way. I realize Im not the first person to be inspired by nature, but I find it amazing how we can all be inspired so uniquely by it. I am a pretty practical person; I feel designs should have form AND function. I USE all of my designs to ensure ease of use, aesthetic appeal, and versatility. If at the end of the day I don't love it, it goes back to the drawing board; or on the back burner; or just tossed on the 'prototype' pile. I also make sure all my designs are items I personally would love to give as gifts.
