Beaded Ndebele Ceremonial Doll
Located in Chicago, IL
A rare imported commodity, glass beads have been a symbol of wealth and importance in south African cultures for centuries, and were exclusively distributed by the region's oba (king). As beads become gradually more accessible throughout the 19th century, they began to displace the organic materials used in traditional art and attire.
This colorful example of African beadwork is a ceremonial doll...

"Senzo Titulo
Michelangelo Antonioni
" by Patrick Fitzgerald, 2022
Located in Chicago, IL
To Chicago-based artist Patrick Fitzgerald, his miniature car sculptures are a means of traveling through time. Born from a fascination with the soap box derby cars of his youth, each vehicle is an exercise in imagining the future through the lens of the past – or vice versa.
Built from found materials collected over the years, the car's futuristic form is layered with personal memories and keepsakes from the past. The most minute of details is always intentional – from the weathered finish to the fictitious sponsor to the miniaturized furnishings of the cramped interior.
This coloful vehicle entitled “Senzo Titulo” is a play upon the 1964 film "Il Deserto Rosso," or "Red Desert," by Italian filmmaker Michelangelo Antonioni...

Studio Made Golf Club Floor Lamp Pop Art Sculpture
Located in Chattanooga, TN
One-of-a-kind studio-crafted floor lamp built from repurposed golf clubs, this piece blends functional lighting with bold sculptural art.
Actual golf clubs—identifiable by their brand and sizing—have been cut, shaped, and welded into a long neck and wedge-like base in the form of a classic golf club. At its foot nestles a large 5-inch diameter golf ball, cradled among the irons, integrating whimsy and meaning into the structure. The entire lamp is metal, and the weight and feel are substantial.
The surface carries a clean white enamel finish that brings a contemporary Pop-Art sensibility to the form. The repaint is recent and mostly even; up close there may be minor mishaps or texture irregularities in the enamel, but nothing that detracts from its visual impact. The lamp is in working order; it emits a bright, directional light pleasing in both ambient and accent settings. Shade is not included, so the form remains clean and undistracted by extras.
This lamp is perfect as a centerpiece in a living room, studio, or gallery-like space where it can be appreciated from multiple angles. The strong silhouette, melding sporting equipment with art and lighting, makes it a conversation starter. It pairs beautifully with minimalist decor, warm woods, polished metals, or dramatic accent walls.
For collectors and design lovers who prize originality, sculptural lighting, or whimsical Pop-Art hybrids, this floor lamp is rare and memorable. It’s more than illumination—it’s functional art with personality and presence.
Incredibly unique studio made golf club lamp...

Circa 1900 Rare Odd Fellows Triangular Initiation Rite Chair Seat
Located in Point Richmond, CA
A rare triangular wooden seat studded with iron spikes, with remnants of black paint along the borders. During the initiation of new members, candidates were blindfolded after being shown a triangular chair with a seat of metal studs, such as this, on which they were to sit to prove their worthiness. While they were being led, blindfolded, to the chair, an identical rubber-studded triangle was substituted, allowing for a slightly softer landing.
The Fellowship’s motto is Amicitia, Amor et Veritas or “Friendship, Love and Truth,” and began in Manchester, England, 26 April 1819. This rite is also said to have been used by the Knights of Pythias...

Each log has its own unique patterns of fossilized moss, bark, and the scars of a lifetime. These facets bring to mind a fascinating combination of organic mortality and preserved permanence. We keep them in their raw, unworked state, using the logs in...
