Exclusive Partnership with the F. Scott Fitzgerald Estate™, Official Media Alert

5/15/2019

 

Artist Tamara Childs Strikes License Deal With F. Scott Fitzgerald Estate™
An exclusive and elegant collection based on the lives and achievements of Scott and Zelda,
embodying the style, grace and taste of the era they helped define.

(Seattle, WA - May, 2019) —  F. Scott Fitzgerald, author of The Great Gatsby and his wife Zelda defined the wild and glittering romance of the Roaring 1920s. The era was marked by endless parties, daring style, and glamour, all sparked by an economic boom.  In his 160 short stories and five novels  Scott captured something essential about America and became an inspired chronicler of his age. Together, Scott and Zelda became icons of the Jazz Age.
 
The F. Scott Fitzgerald Home Collection™ celebrates this defining style in a fashion brand representing high-end designers. Ralph Lauren admits using F. Scott Fitzgerald as his muse for many of his collections and both the Plaza Hotel in New York and The Ritz in Paris have taken a license to honor F. Scott Fitzgerald, one of their most beloved patrons,( with) a suite in his name.  The Plaza revived the Jazz Age with an art deco-designed space, called the  Fitzgerald Suite, designed by Academy Award winning Costume and Set Designer, Catherine Martin and there is also a Fitzgerald high tea in the newly renovated Palm Court.
 
As part of this new partnership, Adam and Tamara Childs will design modern offerings with a splash of Art Nouveau, blending the beauty and uniqueness reminiscent of Scott and Zelda's flamboyant lifestyle. This collection will include signature glass staples from the Childs’ studio such as vases, bowls and platters and will be available for sale on TamaraChildsCollection.com.  Pieces designed for the F. Scott Fitzgerald Home Collection™ will debut at World Market Center Las Vegas this summer, and will be available for wholesale orders in July  to boutiques across the country in July.
 
With metallic as the primary design focus, the Tamara Childs Collection creates its simple elegance with the ancient art of hand-gilding, using fine sheets in hues of gold, silver and bronze. Every piece from creation to finish-work goes through Adam & Tamara’s hands five times. It’s this very intimate relationship with each piece that sets them apart from their competitors.
Tamara Childs Collection has a permanent showroom in the World Market  Center, Las Vegas. The collection can be found in shops, museums and galleries throughout the US, the Middle East, in Moscow, Madrid, Lisbon and Mexico City, Hong Kong, the Caribbean, South America, Panama and Japan.
Childs’ website, http://www.TamaraChildsCollection.com  introduces the studio’s rich gold, silver and metal gilded bowls, glassware, barware, plates, trays and decorative accessories. All items are food-safe, and hand washable in mild soap.

Tamara Childs is a master gilder of hand-gilded metallic tableware, gifts, home decor and accessories.

Even as an ancient art, gilding thin metal leaf on surfaces as a means of adornment delighted its recipients—as gifts, showpieces or as everyday tableware. In her unique style, Tamara Childs continues this timeless tradition of creating hand-gilded pieces of table art made for a lifetime of enjoyment and use. Visit http://www.tamarachildscollection.com/
F. Scott Fitzgerald is one of the most enduring American novelists of the
20th Century and is as celebrated in the 21st Century as when he first emerged on the literary scene in the 1920’s.  As a dashing young Princeton student, he already possessed a distinct 'elan'; he was talented, well-read, fun loving and always impeccably dressed.  His novels and short stories were written in a style rich with flawless dialogue, greatly imaginative and intensely romantic. His books have been translated into 35 languages and he has been the subject of over 100 biographies.

Our Favorite Mother's Day Gift Ideas

4/17/2019

 
This is one of our favorite times of year at the studio because we are so busy making beautiful gifts for Moms. Much of our design is about exquisite details, and the one-of-a-kind quality of each piece makes it the perfect way to  say, "You're pretty special to me!" We've selected some of our favorite ways to pamper our mothers.

Small Vases
We love the versatility of these smaller glass vases.  You can put a single stem in them, use them on your vanity for beauty tools,  or on your desk for pens. We like to both mix  patterns or create a uniform set.  We prefer to keep them in the same color family of gold or silver.

Martini Glasses
No explanation needed for how to use these cocktail glasses, only to say that a drink always tastes better in a beautiful glass!  Frosted base with a hand-gilded band on the bottom.  4 glasses make the perfect set. Shown here on our Rectangle Tray in Zig Zag.

Rectangular Vases
This 10-inch sleek contemporary vase in Roadz design is an elegant look that only needs a few stems to make its statement.  One of our biggest selling designs and available in all colors.

Grouping Shapes & Sizes
This is one of our favorite things to do with our glass vases and our customers' opportunity to get creative and put together their unique style. We use these everywhere in the home! Be sure to read last Mother's Day gift idea post on putting together the perfect vanity tray.
