Curated Objects
The upcycled furniture pieces begin as meditation.
I breathe new life into forgotten forms — sanding, layering, pouring, rebuilding — while quietly ruminating on the evolution of my art. Restoration becomes reflection.
Reinvention becomes practice.
The vintage objects offered here were once part of my personal collection — admired in my own spaces, styled in photographs, woven into creative studies. They have lived with me.
Now, they move into the law of circulation.
Loved, displayed, and honored — they are released to be discovered, admired, and enjoyed again in another home.
Objects, like people, are meant to move.

La Reina Nocturna ~ The Night Queen
Reimagined Dresser & Nightstands
La Reina Nocturna is the darker sovereign—commanding, elemental, and richly layered. This expansive dresser and its matching end tables are grounded in a smoky, shadowed teal, offset by matte black drawers sculpted with deeply textured molded resin. Chunky gold hardware anchors each form with confidence and weight.
The crowning element is the poured epoxy surface: a luminous composition of blue, emerald green, black, and molten gold, moving like stone, sea, and night sky in quiet collision. Each top is framed in black trim and finished with gold corner metal moldings, reinforcing the architectural presence of the set.
These pieces are not merely coordinated—they are conversational, designed to live together or stand alone with equal authority. Functional, sculptural, and unapologetically bold, La Reina Nocturna transforms storage into statement and surface into spectacle.
One of a kind. Reworked by hand. Sold as a suite or individually.

Finished in a rich crimson red, the piece is embellished with gold floret accents and anchored by chunky gold knobs, striking a deliberate balance between whimsy and strength.
Five generous drawers offer substantial storage, each one framed as part of the spectacle rather than hidden from it.
There is a circus energy here—bold, joyful, and slightly rebellious—but never frivolous. Il Magnifico Rosso is equal parts muscle and mischief, designed for those who appreciate furniture with personality, presence, and a confident sense of play.

La Reina Azul ~ The Blue Queen
Reimagined Spanish-Style Mid-Century Dresser
La Reina Azul stands as a regal reinterpretation of a Spanish-influenced mid-century form—bold, grounded, and unapologetically present.

Delicate gold floret accents lend an Old World whisper, balancing strength with ornament.
Each of the nine drawers is lined with exotic Buddha art, an intimate and unexpected detail—meant to be discovered, not announced. The wood has been deeply nourished with Big Mama’s Spring Butter, restoring warmth and vitality to the original material before being sealed in a Dixie Belle Clear Coat (Flat), preserving both texture and touch.
This piece is as functional as it is commanding—equally suited for a dramatic bedroom, collected entry, or design-forward living space. La Reina Azul is not merely furniture; she is presence, patience, and power.
