I recently stumbled upon a UK company whose ability to surprise and delight me with each product I explored had me saying Oh! mineheart. My guess is, they’ll have you saying the same.

ONE: Poetry Plates

I am utterly in love with this collection of fine bone china plates. If I were a bride-to-be, these would be on my registry in a heartbeat! The large 10 inch plate features a love poem, written from the unusual and quirky perspective of the plate to you. It reads “I love the way you look at me, an the way you use your knife. I love the way you eat your food, you give meaning to my life.” The medium 8 inch plate reads “I am nothing but a simple plate, porcelain skin painted gold and blue. I am not a poet, just a dish, but I’ll leave that judgement up to you.” The small 6 inch side plate reads “A little bit on the side.” The texts are written in a romantic handwritten style of a old love letter complete with dips of ink and imperfections, and they have me utterly swooning!

TWO: King Edison Pendant Lamp

Whimsy and innovation combine the utilitarian with the decorative in this surprising little pendant. At only 5″ in diameter, the scale of the chandelier suspended inside the bulb is Lilliputian – the stuff dollhouse dreams are made of.

THREE: Persian Cowhide Rug

This rug is quite simply drop-dead sexy. The juxtaposition is as tasty as salty and sweet with a traditional Persian design being printed over parts of a natural cowhide rug. The result is a piece that looks as though it is revealing the true colours of this Bovine – country field wanderer by day, sophisticate by night.

FOUR: Pillows by artist Chad Wys

With names like “General Mustard Cushion,” “Tom Green Cushion,” “Lord White Cushion,” and “Lady Peacock Cushion” the sense of whimsy and playfulness with historical portraits is not lost on us.

Hope this finds you enjoying an inspired Tuesday!
