I have been tempted during my recent sojourns into the world wide web of international design to start a new blog that could be singularly devoted to the worship of 'things'. It would not be the first of it's kind by any means (I strongly recommend this one, and this one, and this one), but it would give me the chance to share with you some of the things that have been making my heart skip a beat in the wee hours of the many a recent morning. For now, my discoveries are dutifully recorded in an Excel spreadsheet, but hopefully, before too long Materialist Australia will be a fully functioning retail store, and with it a companion blog to release those discoveries from their monochromatic temporary home into a technicolour wishlist. I might even invite people to vote for what they want me to import... or at least invite them to comment on my impeccable taste in 'things'.
But this one couldn't wait. I suspect it will never be viable to import them, but aren't these rings simply smashing? Made from the pages of [your favourite book], set in resin and polished to a high gloss finish, these rings take literary nerditude to a whole new level.
Make mine The Faraway Tree, thanks. Or perhaps Catch 22... because I would love to walk around with my finger wrapped in an enigma wrapped in absurdity.
