I've always had a appreciation for things that age well; a garden bench with flaking paint, oxidised copper down pipes, scars... That's why when I first fell in love with my at-the-time, soon-to-be girlfriend, I didn't just jump in head first. No, I did my due diligence and got to know her mother and grandmother first. Realising the future still had fantastic cheek bones, I decided to go all in and we have been together ever since (with Lizzy that is, not Lesley or Connie).
Now I don't profess to know anything about fashion, but I do know a silver fox when I see one. The uniform of field and factory, French workwear. Time is French workwear's loyal friend. In fact, a hard life is its best friend. The more days spent toiling in the lavender fields of Provence, or on the railways of Lyon, or your art studio under the house, the better.
In light of this, I've decided to start peddling them. Here I'll be selling gems I've sourced from Brochants all over France. Overalls, boiler suits, jackets and pants. Some will be dead stock. Most, worn by someone who is now dead. Each garment unisex, hot and hardworking. All of them of them made to last and garenteed to look better with age. We clearly aren't doing anything new here. People have been selling this stuff for decades. I just want to keep curating and selling the beautiful things I find in this world.

Fresh shipments arriving monthly. Individual pieces will be available through the website in the coming days.

An ode to Black Glass

Oh black glass you sultry Jezebel. Staring into your slab of dark nothingness and everythingness. Is this what it feels like to look into a black hole? Or be choked by an octopus once thought to be extinct? Or to eat an entire truffle?
Oh black glass, I offer my heart to be plucked from this mortal coil. Do with it what you will. I only ask that once your done with me, you throw my remains to your sister Stained Glass.

The first time I saw one of these lamps, I was in a restaurant in Marseille two months ago. In the corner of the room emitting the warmest light was what I was sure was a tower erected from sheets of lasagna, boiled, draped then dried again. I was completely floored. I had never seen anything like it. After feverishly trying to explain this ‘pasta lamp’ to anyone who would listen, a fellow dealer exclaimed “Ahh Georgia Jacob” since then it had been my mission to hunt down and buy every one of these in existence. The shade is actually made from linen dipped in resin. The base is a ceramic fruit bowl with the paint pleasantly well faded. It’s a statement, it’s delicate, it’s gaudy, it’s a masterpiece and it could be yours.

Late 70’s large Georgia Jacob Fruit D’ange lamp.
