Please join us this weekend as we feature items to dress
your holiday table! Start your gift shopping, too! We have so many new
things to share with you.
We will be featuring work by these artists, among others.
|
Raluca and Mark Tudose
The
Spoonman of Transylvania and his wife. There is a spoon with a story
for everyone on your list. These also make perfect hostess gifts!
|
Andrei Pandea We
noticed these dear little heads in an upstairs window from the street
in Sibiu. Once upstairs, we discovered this young artist and his
remarkable story of The Innocents' Choir, his project to help raise
funds to aid Romanian children with special needs by crafting and
exhibiting 5000 miniature ceramic busts . We are fortunate to have 12
similar pieces for sale this weekend.
|
Pall Ida
was a weaver from the village of Mureni, near Sighisoara, Transylvania. She passed away 2 years ago at the age of 90.
We met her daughter (pictured here) , who presented us with stacks of
crisply pressed cloth scented with lavender. We bought them all.
|
Nistor Ioan
Climbing
the steps into the ancient Leather Workers' Guild Tower in Sighisoara,
we were transported back in time... Here we met Nistor at his workbench
fashioning a horse's harness, perhaps to grace one of the many horses we
saw pulling wagons and plows. We don't have harnesses for you (but ask
about our hand-woven horsehair hatbands from Peru!), but did get an
assortment of handsome leather bracelets.

Rose Ann Hall Designs
We are pleased to introduce hand-etched glassware and hand-dipped and carved cathedral candles from
this
artisan group based in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. One fourth of
the work force is physically disabled. Learn more about them by
watching this video.
