Another unique thing we saw at the Salt Spring Island Saturday Market was Seth Cosmo Burton's hand crafted knives.
According to his site:"Seth Cosmo Burton is an artist/craftsman following the finest of traditions. Seth develops each design with detailed care and deliberation, with great skill and his experience in many materials: woods, metals and minerals. The energy and love that Seth puts into each piece emanates from the medium and beyond."
You have to see them to believe.

I am looking for one of these. The Moma Store used to carry them but no longer. It is a simple, super modern Christmas Tree designed by Kuno Prey, a professor at the famous Bauhaus design school in Germany
It is made from industrial bottle brushes dyed green and then inserted into a bright-red wood pole, the tree looks great decorated or undecorated.
