So many worlds colliding! This weekend I’m heading to Chicago to meet my boyfriend’s parents for the first time. As a result, I was Googling around for cool interior decorating stores we may want to stop into and came across Elements Chicago. Looking around, looking around…I came up Dunes and Duchess’ candelabras.

Turns out these are the new creations of Stacy Kunstel, a neighbor of my family’s in New Hampshire. My mom had mentioned this new endeavor to me – news travels fast in small towns – but I hadn’t been paying enough attention at the time. If I had been paying attention I would have had the chance to go see the pieces in person at the NYIGF!

I love the white and blue lights and candelabras though they also come in two shades of gray it looks like from the site. I haven’t read the whole blog over at Dunes and Duchess but I believe these pieces are lathe-turned, a class I myself have been meaning to take myself, on bowls, over at the North Bennet Street School.

Very cool to see people working on new projects especially when they are coming out so beautifully. I hope I can keep up a little better in the future so I don’t miss an opportunity to check them out live!
