Our 'Crown of Thorns' mirror is made from 264 interlocking pieces of laser-cut stainless steel. This puzzle-like joinery technique originated in the late 1800s, and is considered the most complex technique used in Tramp Art. Tramp Art was a style of Outsider Art that arose out of the Great Depression in the US when resources were scarce. Artists used pen knives to cut and notch discarded cigar boxes, and laced the pieces together to make frames, boxes, and other domestic objects. We've revived the lost art using steel in place of wood for a gothic take on a folk art tradition. We painstakingly assemble the mirror piece by piece in our studio in New Fairfield, Connecticut.

This mirror is part of our ARTIFACT collection. Each piece in the collection is inspired by a significant historical object from a museum archive.

Wescover creator since 2024
Hard objects for the unconventional home. All crafted in our Connecticut studio.

Wretched Flowers is the design studio of Loney Abrams and Johnny Stanish. Their ever-evolving practice currently involves designing objects for the home, interior and set design, art direction, and foraged floristry. Clients and collaborators include MoMA PS1, Rhizome, Gladstone Gallery, Anicka Yi, Clever / Architectural Digest, among many others.

Initiated in 2020 as a sustainable floristry studio, Wretched Flowers creates sculptural bouquets using foraged local plants. By consciously harvesting invasive versus native plants, Wretched Flowers facilitates ecological restoration on a small but meaningful scale.

The need for custom vases for their arrangements led them to make their own, which eventually inspired a collection of hand-built ceramic objects for the table top. Their second and most recent collection, ARTIFACT, expands their offering of home accessories to include lamps, a mirror, and a candleholder, in addition to vases. Wretched Flowers is currently pursuing opportunities related to interior design.

Abrams and Stanish, who are married, began collaborating in 2012 while receiving their MFAs from Pratt Institute. In 2012 they co-founded Hotel Art Pavilion, an experimental exhibition platform and gallery space. Abrams and Stanish currently teach at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York.
