My Idle Passion

I received an inquiry recently on a post I did a long time ago about Arabic Calligraphy's many marvels.
I want to thank him actually for awakening my idle passion I have for this art. Would love to start learning it, hopefully soon.

Some of my findings whilst revisiting the beautiful world of Arabic Calligraphy. All work done by Josh Berer.

Fidelity.












Into the void.










We are all human.

Haute Hooter Timepieces

The MB&F Boucheron JwlryMachine

Words simply do not do justice to this piece of art.

Art , plus you can see what time it is , 2n1 on your wrist!

Luxurious night bird peers back at you with deep purple jewel-set eyes, making for an ultra-lavish look.

The last watch is not of my preference though.

Will start at $215000.

Pure Art

I've always loved the flowing lines and arched strokes of Arabic script. The pure complexity of it is amazing, and sometimes they're so beautiful and freeflowing that it's a marvel that it's actually meant to be read. I often collect quotes so artistically written in , here are some favorites..


Inner strength.


Always trust yourself.
