As if the objects themselves were not gorgeous enough, the photographs of Caroline Swift's ethereal ceramics, organic glass shapes and understated cashmere are just delicious.
The most delicate wafer thin bowls
The most elegant cashmere cardigans
The most beautiful and ethereal objects
Vases to hold, to touch, to fill with a single perfect specimen
Bone china spoons. To eat breakfast? Perhaps not. To treasure? Most definitely.
Leaves fluttering to the floor
Orange glass to catch the light
Felt packaging, to wrap precious things
Dresses of the softest Italian linen to dress the part while you live your simple, chic life. Surrounded by objects too beautiful to imagine.
All pieces by Caroline Swift, an English artist who believes in the pleasure of slow, understated, timeless luxury.
Lovely. I want those spoons. Not to use. Just to have to make my friends jealous. Isn't that what nice china is for?
