Marvels of Hayon Studio

Instant love!! Tudor chair by Huyon Studio. I would prefer silver legs though.

 This vase by Hayon Studio should perhaps be in the "Art" section of my blog, because it is truly a work of art.

And I am speechless but loving this green chicken by Hayon Studio, which clearly rocks!

I also love these copper (they also come in silver) vases by Hayon Studio.

And these evil eye (I don't know why in English it is called "evil eye"; because it implies that the eye symbolizes evil,  while in actuality, as the superstition goes,  the eye supposedly protects one FROM the evilness of others) bowls and vases are designed by Hayon Studio for a Turkish  company called Gaia and Gino.

Accessories that I like

And some accessories to bring a fun vibe to any room (You can find them here and here):

This handpainted porcelain vase by Jaime Hayon for Lladro looks whimsical and so cute.

And this  porcelain candleholder by Maxim Velcovsky for Quubus looks creepy at times, but it is interesting nevertheless. I like how he "grows hair" as the candle melts. I actually may buy this one day.

And I have been wanting some of these vases and sculptures (but not that boob lamp; that would just freak me out) by Jonathan Adler for a long time, like the marvelous dora maar vase (first one below). If I still like that vase in two years, I may eventually end up buying it, because that means it is just meant to be.

New buys, new finds

I bought two decor items this past month. One is a black crocheted bowl, which is shipped but I have not received yet. The yarn that forms it is neoprine rubber, a material which is used frequently in plumbling and the motorcycle industry. The bowls, which are hand-made in Italy, are strong and durable despite their delicate appearance.

  I also bought this  vase by Chapeaux. I got them at Gretelhome.

I was looking at Horchow. And I have to say that 90% the stuff that they sell I am not that interested in, as they are mostly classic or traditional, neither of which I am much into. But they also sell antiques or vintage inspired items, or in rare cases, industrial looking pieces, which is why it is worth a look every now and then. I liked these two items, a kilim ottoman and a rustic/industrial dining table, which I would put together with modern chairs to give a nice contrast, like the chairs I had photoshopped into one of my collage-like decor pictures, which I am posting below. I also photoshopped  Jonathan Adler's Dora Maar vase in that picture, which I have been wanting for YEARS.
