Adorning the rock wall is the Bug Gallery. All are included, as well as the additional Nespresso art pieces along the driveway on the wall.

Each snake has been hand crafted by Evelyn, who created the bodies from upcycled Nespresso pods, and Mindo, who hand carved and mosaic the heads and tails.
Offered individually or as a collection.

We poured the concrete and then mosaic’ed it as the base for this elephant, which we bought from the Summerland Antique store.

Tucked away beneath the aloe….

Mosaic by mPod (all included). One of Lotusland’s eminent landscape designers (Eric Nagelmann) recently visited and said these were among the largest and most beautiful specimens of Queen Victoria Agave that he had ever seen.

The Deuterocohnia brevifolia is considered both rare and highly unusual. This specimen would be valued over $1400 now. It is extremely slow growing and limited availability. And it turns out it didn’t like too much direct sun, so we created this shade to give it filtered light (copper, pennies, chainmail and Nespresso pods)

Complimenting the cactus garden are a number of steel sculptures of cactus from Mexico, such as these in the barrel cactus bed and at the front of the driveway by the gate.

To highlight the white ‘old man cactus’ collection, we brought in black slate as a background. We then created the border from old rubber bowling balls that we scoured the Bowling Lanes of southern California to find. By the 1970’s most lanes switched over to using fiberglass balls, which don’t leave marks on the lanes, so finding these was quite a treasure hunt.
The bowling pins were sculpted and mosaic’ed by mPod.

Evelyn discovered the ceramic bases at the store Random, then created Fused Glass ‘sundials’ to adorn them.
(The bases are included; the glass is pieces are available individually or as a collection).
They surround a mature Australian Finger Lime tree, prized for its fruit ($1 a piece at farmers markets !) which are great in guacamole, margaritas and so much more.

This is a rare collection of 487 vesta boxes, aka matchsafes. They were made to hold early friction matches and keep them safe from moisture and accidental ignition. They were only used from 1870 to 1920, when safety matches and pocket petrol lighters became available.
We are offering the entire collection for sale.

We commissioned the renowned furniture maker Victor DiNovi to make these cabinets for the matchsafes. They are installed and include LED lighting, and would be great for any collection or photos, etc. The shelves are adjustable. The round glass on the edges was a real custom touch!

Buddha on canvas.
The frame for the buddha is actually painted onto the wall, yours to use as you like. (Designed for safety, enabling you to enjoy artwork over your bed without concern of anything heavy falling).
Sconces are genuine wood (included).

Artwork by Nespresso Artists Evelyn

From the elite Venetian design house Foscarini, designed by the architect and industrial designer Valerio Bottin; from hand-blown, cased satin glass. The Venetian technique applies a clean white layer on the inside to maximize downward diffusion, layered underneath the vibrant amber/yellow glass on the outside. Collector’s item, not valued ~ $1200+

The wood armoire is our gift to you.
The litho by RC Gorman, “Dream Night” is not available.

Hidden beneath your hanging clothes, you’ll find a small safe, secured to the wall. Set your own code to open it, with an included key as backup.
Note too the cedar panelling on the closet walls, freshly sanded – the cedar aroma naturally discourages moths and bugs.
