Darcy Miro


New to LEFT is the work by New York sculptor and jeweller Darcy Miro. Miro’s creations are created using casting methods with sterling silver or 18 karat gold. Her pieces emerge from wax casts made from found materials, showing jagged surfaces, erosion, decomposition and decay. Each cuff resembles fragments of a tiny terrain. The sterling silver is oxidized with addition of black diamonds to the larger works.

CORNELIAN TAURUS

Cornelian Taurus is a Japanese boutique leathergoods label designed by Daisuke Iwanaga.
When we met Daisuke and his brother Shinsuke in Paris last year, we were so impressed by the care and respect they had for their craft. The bags and wallets are truly of the highest quality, that is not always achieved in certain "high end" products these days.


The pieces have an industrial approach, which is carefully balanced with elegance, beauty and functionality.
What makes these bags so special are the thoughtful elements and references to Japenese and family culture. The handles are wrapped like the handles of traditional Samuri swords, and the the hardware is often taken from boat rigging in honour of the family maritme history.

All pieces are created using traditional Japanese handcrafts, using Japanese tanned and smoked leathers.

We are so pleased to have this true artisan label at Left, and I'm sure you will be impressed by these luxurious little treasures!

YOHJI Y'S

The new Y's collection by Yohj Yamamoto is also in store. The printed scarves and bags are really fun, and great for an all black wardrobe that is so typical in Melbourne! There are lots of fantastic easy to wear pieces which is a good balance between the more highly designed Mainline ones.
