Sniffanys by Fiona Killackey
So, you're in love with your dog? Prove it, with what can only be described as doggy designer couture. Created by Australian Southern Highlands artisan Trudy Heathwood, Sniffanys feature sterling silver clasps and are bespoke dog collars made from precious metals, semi-precious gemstones and Swarovski crystals.
Heathwood had the grand idea of creating such canine couture when she was struck down by illness and found herself gaining inspiration from her eight Great Danes. This festive season dig deep, deep, deep down in the pockets to provide your pooch with their very own Sniffanys collar. Collars are made to order and most start around $700.

Blue Gear Works Jewelry
While walking in Soho the other day, I came across a fabulous antique-chic jewelry stand helmed by New York based artist Blue Bayer. Blue uses found objects such as gears, clocks, lockets, spoons and evil eyes to create Victorian, steam punk-style jewelry in his Lower East Side studio/gallery/shop called Blue Gear Works. With each unique piece, he prides himself on exquisite craftsmanship using classic...
