Our new jewellery concept is inspired on the theatrical costumes and performances of the Bauhaus school of Design from the 1930s as well as the Last Waltz sculptures, its a fun way to create as no two pieces are ever really the same as the next. Looking forward to discovering more ideas for homewares and art!

It took a while, the Last Waltz series finally got big enough to go outside at averaging 1600mm high, two selling on opening night with a third finished overnight fill an exhibition invitation! Developed to be dismantled in three pieces enabling shipping to become alot more viable. The base cone can also be constructed hollow so it can be filled with a weighted material like sand of pebbles or pinned to the ground depending on the location The Baradene artshow is opening on the 24th May, tickets and opening times here. We have some new work tools just finished today and looking amazing. Also two new lights inspired by the industrial side of things with cogs and gears somehow looking like lace. Plus some new paintings on paper which is a first for us- normally they are on board. I`ve been waiting for the right time, some inspiration and in the meantime a decade has ticked by since my last foray into clock making. It could be worse, time might have just passed me by altogether.
Like several of the last directions The Waltz clocks were inspired by a summetime sculpture project called The Last Walt which was a result of my Summer play things. Inspired with some ideas, I get to play around with resin components, branches, leaves, paintings, explore whatever I want and just as important no two are alike. The best of machine, art and handmade.

You know its the summer holidays when Ponsonby is hot and empty- its a good time to play around. Digging out the half finished pieces, rummaging through boxes and flicking through old sketchbooks. Music at full volume drowning out the phone, its self indulgent bliss and a good way to start the year
