I have featured Restoration Hardware before, and I’m doing it again because their offer of awesome items just keeps growing. This time, my eye was drawn to a combination of two things I love: curiosity cabinets and science. The “Chemistry Cloches” are glass domes with a collection of laboratory glasswork and functioning light bulbs underneath, making them both decorative and functional. They are part of the RH collection by Mark Sage and Rudi Nijssen, two Belgian (!) antique dealers who create reproductions of interesting historic objects, using old materials.
There are many more interesting curiosity cloches in the collection, so go check it out at: http://www.restorationhardware.com/catalog/category/products.jsp?link=TheReimaginists&categoryId=cat2350046
A really nice mix of science and arts.
