Mushroom Plate

Los Angeles-based artist Adam D. Miller produces ceramics adorned with pictorially expressive images that are as much in conversation with print-making traditions as they are with the stoneware they are a part of. Available through The Future Perfect.

Midcentury Candlesticks

Channel the streamlined style of Mid-century design with the delicate yet dramatic features of these candlesticks. Designed and produced by Fete Home, the contrast of polished brass and matte black makes an architectural statement that is enhanced by the warm glow of candlelight.
