This feels a tad criminal coming from an advocate for quality-made artisan pieces that’ll last a lifetime, but who has the budget? Okay, lots of people aka many clients, but not me. We’re all about the mix. Highs and lows, baby. Let’s call these mass produced pieces placeholders (till we make our millions). The key being to find products that look as though you paid 10x what you did. Those are the keepers in my opinion (and a point of pride for frugality).
