Two New designs


Not one but two new designs today!

Firstly for the Wiccan in you "Pentangled" a pentagram based design. Of course to me a pentagram is a mathematical design ;)

Secondly is a choker/collar design "Woven Collar" (not the most orginal name I know ;). It has been described as too pretty for a slave, but it comes ready for the addition of your favourite scripts!

Also we are now part of the great gridwide gold rush, find the lump of gold and win a prize. You then get the location of a new lump of gold and can continue the treasure hunt! For more check out:

The 120-cell


There is a new installation next to the shop, the 120-cell. This is a glimpse at the shadow of a four dimensional figure. It is a beautiful piece of geometric sculpture. Please come along and take a look!

What is that thing?

According to Raven Lament it is the Hexa-Flexa-Tyrannosaurus, however this is a name that only the true cognoscenti would know. The shortest answer is that it is a beautiful geometric object. Feel free to stare at it, fly through it, rotate your camera round it, and hopefully enjoy it.

The short, technical answer is that it is the projection of the 120-cell from 4 dimensions to the 3 dimensional space given by one of its facets.

But for most people that simply raises more questions:

What does 4 dimensions mean? Will you start talking about shape shifting Lizards controlling earth?

What is projection?

What is the 120-cell?

These questions and more are answered in a notecard next to the sculpture. More importantly you can see the things itself here

Cubic Rose

As promised I have been working on better ways to make chains, revising my differentiation and everything. This is the result and I have to say I am proud. As for the last piece the bead is just five cubes placed together so their vertices lie of the vertices of a dodecahedron (12-sided dice).

It is scripted to colour change, the chain can be Gold, Silver, Bronze or Ebony. The gems, Emerald, Ruby, Topaz, Jet, Gold, Silver or Bronze. So you have 28 different options to play with. You can buy all of them for just L$304.

Retro 5 cubes

Jewellery is a new venture for me, I have been playing around with differentiation and 3d geometry and produced some awesome chains. This however is an early design. I showed it to some of you, some loved it, some hated it. I took all that in and then ignored it amd decided to try to sell it anyway because, well because I like it and its my shop!

The bead is the main thing, just five cubes. All their vertices lie on the vertices of a dodecaheron (for maths geeks) or a 12-sided dice (for rp geeks).
