Post-Modern Artsy Jewellery Holders

Hey readers, last week we talked about funky & cool espresso machines but this week, we'll be doing something specifically for people who wear jewellery. We'll be talking about very unique and intricate jewellery holders from inQbox. Located at One Utama, on the lower ground floor near the Oval.

These first two pieces of art are one of the many pieces sold at inQbox. The pyramid-like jewellry holder is sold for only RM90, for such a hefty amount of space available for all your jewellery, it's very worth it. The item on the left however is only RM50 but I'm sure for music-lovers it would be more ideal for them as it comes in the form of a note.

This little item costs RM70, in the form of a bird-cage, it holds many places to keep your jewellery as well. The last two pieces here come in the form of a butterfly and a sunflower. The butterfly costs RM 60, with lots of available space for earrings. The sunflower behind the butterfly provides lots of space for both earrings and necklaces.

Funky Espresso Machines

Hi everyone, this week on Contemporary Artsy Fartsy, we're featuring espresso machines made in Italy from Etc.(Everything Tea & Coffee). Located at the Curve, on the 1st floor, along the Street.

This first little beauty is called Ascaso Dream, it comes in various different colours, white, red polka dots, black, orange and etc. So far this is the only coffee machine that comes in various colours. It has a very unique, classical espresso machine look. Beside the machine on the left in the above picture is the coffee grinder that also comes in various colours as well. The Ascaso Dream is priced at RM3,000 but the design and it is good for home use because of it's size and convieniance.

This is the coolest coffee machine and it produces the best espresso ever. It operates on steam-power by pulling the lever, so you can make coffee and have fun at the same time! Even though the price is RM5,000, it really serves it's purpose.




This whole coffee machine is made out of bronze, the Elektra coffee machine, it uses twin steam-power, giving more pressure to the espresso, creating the perfect espresso! Besides, it's function, the design of this espresso machine is very classical yet modern in it's design.
