SPEED CHAIR Artist Boris Bally has created this bold, beautiful chair out of actual speed limit signs: This urban expression of glass-on-metal represents many years of collecting hard-to-find and specially weathered signage gleaned from ten-foot-high, thirty thousand pound scrap piles. Each of these reflective pearls represents sifting through thousands of ordinary oyster shells. Bally extracts the most important elements of the gems he finds, joins them to create exciting color and image combinations, and adds details through hand-sawing and filing. The rhythmic quality of the design elements is a metaphor for strength and stability, as well as the danger and pain of life, mixed with a disarming edge of humor. Bally's work has been featured in many museums throughout the country, including the Smithsonian Institute and the Brooklyn Museum of Art. Handmade in Rhode Island. Only ground shipping is available for this item. Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery. At this time, this item can... See less

In 1981 Donkey Kong smashed into the arcade video gaming scene. It was the first to tell a complete narrative in gaming format and the first to use the damsel-in-distress paradigm, later mimicked by countless other video games. Mario became Nintendo’s mascot and he and Kong went on to become two of Nintendo’s most popular characters. The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) version of Donkey Kong (1986) brought Nintendo and these iconic characters into the homes of game lovers worldwide. Made with blik Re-Stik™, these movable and reusable decals are based on the same 8-bit graphics from the NES version of Donkey Kong. This is an official Nintendo licensed product. See less

OK, you like a nice cold beer every once in a while – like every other night. And obviously you prefer a good microbrew over a Bud – or maybe you don't – taste varies. In any case, you need to open the bottle somehow. Yes we are aware of twist off caps, but what if you do like microbrews? Or prefer Coke in a bottle? Unless your hand is a wrench, you won't get to far… Why not consider this elegant piece of work from the good guys over at Suck UK? It's a fridge magnet cum bottle opener. And we like it. I works perfectly with our micro brews and with pretty much any other bottle as well. And it's really good looking. Subtle, it integrates well and doesn't scream at you. Unless you take the red version or the ATL version… Oh – and if you prefer opening your beer by twisting your hand, go ahead, be a macho, but in case it doesn't open – try the opener… Color: Chrome, Red, White Size: approx. 5" x 8" x 2" (13x20x5 cm) See less

AlissiaMT should be known to all of you design aficionados out there for her wonderful collection of 'diamond' rings and her unique nested appetizer plates 'A Handful of Plates'. The InsideOut Collection of barware turns the common knowledge of what a drinking glass should look like on its head. In AMT's collection of barware, the well known and oftentimes iconic shapes of glasses are hidden behind a neutral and discreet outer shape, unassuming and simple. But once you pour the drink, the glass' inner identity appears creating an unusual and highly fascinating effect. Besides the visual beauty, there is another extremely convincing argument: your drink simply doesn't warm as fast as it would in a normal champagne glass as you are not touching it at all and if you really want it cold, chill the glasses in the freezer and create an amazing visual presentation… The glasses are all handmade, are 1.5" (3,8 cm) wide and 9.25" (23,5 cm) high and come in a set of 2. Now all you need to do is... See less

Or better known as the cherry blossom glass... A simply stunning and wonderful idea by the great guys over at 100% in Japan. It basically turns the notion of annoying condensation rings on ist head, and make them something to look forward to. Every time you lift your glass a beautiful Cherry Blossom, the Sakura Flower appears and subtely changes its shape. The glass subtely develops its shape from the top where it's perfectly round and then slowly starts to completely change. From the side nothing is really visible, But once you lift it from a table top, voilà there it is... This is an amazing quality glass, the base feels thick and heavy, yet the walls are nice and thin giving off a crisp chime when toasted. The cherry blossom is etched perfectly into the base, so it creates a beautiful and perfect shape each time the glass is lifted...
