Papabubble by Lost At E Minor

We recently came across the Papabubble range of sweetened goodies and who would've thought that lollies—and hard ones at that—could be made to look so creative. And delicious.

It's the twists on conventional lolly types that make the Barcelona-based company so worth checking out. We spoke to founder Tommy Tang about the rise of Papabubble from Australian upstarts to international favorites, "Crick, my delicious partner and I started Papabubble in Barcelona in June 2003. I did, however, begin to get my hands dirty in 1997 in Melbourne where I opened my first store, called Suga. After expanding through Melbourne, we set up Sticky in Sydney with my delicious partner's brother. And then fled the country to begin the Papabubble in Spain, where we still live and still burn our fingers."

Illustrator Andrea Innocent
Melbourne artist Andrea Innocent's illustrations are beautiful, stylized and surreal. Borrowing from the Ukiyo-e tradition of woodblock printing that became popular in Japan in the seventeenth century, Innocent uses crisp lines and monochromatic color to create poster-style works. Ukiyo-e, meaning "pictures of the floating world," were often images of otherworldly scenes and people. Like those of her forebears, Innocent's works are ethereal, populated by...
William the Brave Bronze Rings
These stylish hoops of bronze have a profound effect on me. Created by Australian jeweler Stannard Inc., William the Brave bronze rings are stunning, look like something a crusader from the middle ages would wear and the raw look exudes an air of individuality. But the nice thing is that despite their virile attributes, you can actually get away with wearing them if you're a...
