Coming Home to Sky Island City

Imagine a city in the sky, a floating island of bustling industry. Airships carry passengers and supplies from land to land, from cloud to cloud. The island is a blink in the eye of the universe; it is the entire world for those who live there.

Does the world come to visit the Sky Island City, or does the city ride the movement of the sky, and venture far and wide to visit the world?

When shaken, the liquid sky fills with gentle copper and green glitter dust. Weathered clay cliffs wrap the globe base.

Moonlight Ride

Silent as the stars, carried on the wind, a lone balloon on a moonlight ride. Over the sleeping city, dancing in the wisps of fireplace smoke and weaving over a thousand dreams below.

When shaken, the liquid fills with sparkling black dust and tiny reflective glitter; the sky is alive with comets and shooting stars.

Glimpse of a Globe

Remember when we told you that an independent movie, “The Tangle,” was featuring one of our snow globes in this very stylish neo-noir, hard sci-fi feature film? Well, the film makers have just released a teaser, and an IndieGoGo campaign for the final touches.

Without spoiling the plot, you can glimpse the globe in the film teaser, once in a revealing close up and twice more if you pay attention to the desk decor.

We’re thrilled to be part of this effort– stay tuned for updates on the project. You can see the trailer and teaser at the IndieGoGo link for “The Tangle“,  including a clip of this globe in action.
