Levenger's Library Treasures

Filed under: Decor

Levenger has always catered to readers with their catalog of lapdesks, book bags and shelves. Now they've gone straight to the libraries for inspiration. Their Library Treasures include desk lamps similar to those used in the New York Public Library, a bag used to deliver books to the Boston Library and the simply charming library steps which are a reproduction of ones in use by the Library Company of Philadelphia, which Benjamin Franklin founded in 1731. Prices range from $28 to $498 for the line.

Time Cam Sculpture

Filed under: Gadgets

We are used to marking time in minutes, hours and days but the Time Cam sculpture takes the long view. The bronze sculpture weighs five pounds and is a small version of a larger sculpture, a 60-foot high mechanical clock which is being designed for a mountain home in the Nevada desert and will keep accurate time for the next 10,000 years. It is called the Clock of the Long Now and a working model of it is now in the London Science Museum. The clock comes in a limited edition of 365 and sells for $500.
