L’Hypothèque
Glass, Brass, Enamel, Delft Pattern | 18 x 15 inches
 
Cradled in baroque brass and draped with antique chain, L’Hypothèque is a haunted jewel box for the imagination. Its enameled glass globe is ringed in hand-painted Delft-style flourishes—delicate blue-and-white blossoms that belie the strange, shadowy world inside. Peer through its gilded frame and you’ll find a crooked cottage caught in a forest of jagged glass thorns, lit from behind by the eerie glow of some long-forgotten spell.
A reliquary for the peculiar, a spellbound sculpture, a whisper from a darker fairytale—this piece is meant to be kept, but never fully understood.
