Kate Moss - immortal goddess or sign of the times?

A statue of Kate Moss, made entirely of 18 kt gold, will be on view at the British Museum beginning this weekend where it will be on display until January 25. It is actually the largest gold statue made by man since ancient Egyptian times. It cost about $3 million to make, of […]

Luc Kieffer chain bangle

I love this chain bangle by Luc Kieffer. The idea of encasing a silver chain inside lucite is clever. I like the contrast: by itself, the chain is pliable, but in the lucite, it becomes rigid. It’s not an accessory you see everyday. And, better yet, it’s on sale. It […]
