Halloween Blogging: Tord Boontje’s Witch’s Kitchen
br> br>

Dutch designer Tord Boontje is probably best known for his fanciful designs, like using lasers to precision-cut lampshades and drapes (a couple of years ago, a red candelabra he did for Target wound up going for far more on eBay than the initial $30 asking price). He's done something spooky recently, and will undoubtedly please foodies and spookophiles alike.
Produced by Artecnica via the Design with Conscience project, the eldritch suite is made by artisans from around the world. Columbian potters make the Witches' Kitchen cookware, a matte black ceramic saucepan and casserole, which are imprinted with the patterns of leaves.

Artists from Guatemala carve the fascinating utensils out of locally sustainable wood. One implement represents a Wiccan athame, a type of double-edge dagger used for ceremonial purposes. And there's a pair of salad-tossing instruments carved to look like witches' hands. Many of the tools are double-ended, lending the collection a mysterious and slightly nefarious edge.



Be warned, the prices on these hail from Crazytown. I won't list them all, I'll just tell you I found the best prices from gnr8.biz, a lot cheaper than what's going on at unicahome.
