"I'm not rich enough to buy cheap things." I love this quote from my back in the day NY estaacian's Polish grandmother. Let's face it, investment is in, and fast is out. I truly believe that objects well-made are not only beautiful to have, but have purpose to care for both the gardener and the garden. Like that cast iron pan that your children's children's... will continue to use, magnificent items inspire and make the doing, well, more enjoyable. These objects are an extension of one's self.
