Folded Friends from Centimeter Design!


Most of us first came into contact with origami while we were... okay then it's not so long ago. It is highly liberating as the hands form paper into planes, jumping frogs, hats, flowers, cash cheques and just about anything. (okay we made one of that up.) And it is just as intimate as it is liberating, you get to make whatever you desire (there's a book of erotic origami, whatever that means and not that we know what's between the covers tsk tsk~)

One aspect of our art is to conserve the sweeter parts of our what our little brains can recall, and with this instance, the paper is superseded by sterling silver. This is just the start of our conservation project, do keep a lookout for more to come in this series as we attempt to resolve our little fetish with paper/silver!

Anniversary

It was quiet but we utterly enjoyed our thanksgiving dinner, and especially so as we blow the candle out for the porch's first birthday too. We offer our silent thanks to you who have been with us the entire year.

A sneak preview from Centimeter Design, and we hope to serve you better each time. Thanks, once again.

Our little way of sharing the occasion with you.


Everyone has their particular way of celebrating festivities, some bake, some decorate, but we do it the only way we know how; through jewellery.

So here we go, some specially designed sterling beads for our first Halloween on the porch. A little something from us.

black gold rush!

*Disclaimer: Background images from Bangkok Post
Like a fascinated child, we wondered aloud how something black could gleam so wondrously of gold. These are the marcasite stones that made their way here from faraway Switzerland and now sitting pretty in different cuts and alignment. Bracelets, earrings and rings....hmm, match them to complete a gleaming set of your own!
