It is always such a huge treat when a new order of John Derian’s work arrives. When I see all of it at the show in New York, I generally try and choose pieces that work together to tell a bit of a visual story. Other times I am just drawn to certain color ways. Many to most of the trays & paperweights in this order were in the black, creamy and sepia tones–and I could not be happier. They work beautifully as a group or individually. Here is a peek at some of my favorites.
This one might end up in our personal collection. I just adore it. But then, I really love them all.
These are the coolest little pocket mirrors. One found a home in my Filson bag the minute the order was unpacked.
Perfection in a paperweight.
There you have it. A little visual inspiration to kick-off this Monday. I hope you enjoyed. John’s new East Village home was featured in The New York Times T magazine yesterday. More inspiration as we head into the week.
That paperweight that says “the real thing” really is perfection, though I love them all. Great choices.
