4-Piece Stoneware Set
$110Radical and pop design furniture often gets the spotlight, but the kitchen deserves its moment, too. This vintage Fabrik Agate Pass dinnerware set for four brings the bold character of 1970s design to the table through its earthy palette, geometric forms, and substantial feel. Designed by Jim McBride, this now-discontinued pattern became known for embracing the wabi-sabi aesthetic, finding beauty in natural variation and imperfection.
Each piece features vertically dipped glazes in espresso brown, spongy gray, and soft cream/buff with delicate speckling, creating a look that is both distinctive and timeless.
Dimensions: Plates - 8.75" x 12" x 1", Bowls - 9.5" x 5.5" x 1.5", Cups - 5.5" x 3.5 diameter x 2.5", Saucers - 6.5" diameter x 0.75"
Condition: One chip on the bottom edge of a dinner plate

Antique Alice in Wonderland
$335This lovely collectible edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland brings new life to Lewis Carroll's beloved classic. Published in 1907, it features the imaginative illustrations of Arthur Rackham, whose distinctive artistic style offers a striking interpretation of the whimsical tale.
As The Metropolitan Museum of Art notes: "Rackham's drawings, though the most controversial of his career, proved extremely successful examples of his vivid imagination and explorations into fantasy [...]. The topsy-turvy scale in the story and the opportunities for metamorphosis in Lewis Carroll's novel lend themselves perfectly to the fantastical imagery that exemplifies Rackham's work."
Bound in red cloth with color plates and a poem by Austin Dobson.
Dimensions: 6.5" x 8" x 1"
Condition: Overall, very good for age, with crisp corners, strong binding, and light age spots on pages.
