Wir möchten Euch ganz herzlich zu unserem diesjährigen Weihnachtsmarkt einladen! Kommt vorbei und probiert bei einem Glas Glühwein oder Sekt unsere Schmuckstücke an - vielleicht findet sich ja etwas Passendes für die Festtage!


Samstag, 2.12., 13 - 18 Uhr
WSAKE Showroom, Am Gries 35, Stadtamhof - Regensburg


Wir freuen uns auf Euch! Gerne können wir auch unverbindliche Besuchstermine außerhalb dieser Öffnungszeiten vereinbaren - meldet Euch einfach!




The ONLINE SHOP will be open 24/7 of course and there is still plenty of time to get your orders in so they arrive in time for Christmas - for custom orders or shipping overseas please check in with us before placing your order, so we can find out if everything will work out in time for the holidays.




Above: A starry sky lit up by SMALL and BIG SILVER STAR NECKLACES.

 

 

 

Sweet little somethings to wear around your neck - gifts for a loved one, bestie or yourself: A FOREVER NECKLACE (in case you are looking for something afordable - these are the way to go, plus there are a few options to choose from) + a very tiny CORAL HEART on a whisper thin gold plated necklace + a snowy white silver FLOWER. / Who else is thinking about getting someone (including themselves) that slightly spooky KIT-CAT CLOCK from BIG SALAD´S GIFT GUIDE?

 

 

 

Brass STARS and MOONS for your ears - the ones to wear around your neck are only available on request (so please request ahead), but you can also find them combined on a NECKLACE or BRACELET. And for those who don´t feel so golden - go with the SILVER STARS instead. / Do look out for the most ridicolous Christmas CANDY at your local supermarket. / In case that candy is too basic for you: go with a homemade STICKY TRIPLE-GINGER CAKE "with a wedge of mature Cheddar cheese" instead. / Since a friend gave me one of Nigellas books for Christmas quite some years ago, she´s forever linked to that holiday for me - I´d go with MINI PAVS topped with pomegranate and the insanity that is LOKSHEN PUDDING to soak up the POINSETTIA - you´ll need it.

 

 

 

My favorite heart of them all: sparkling vintage RHINESTONES and brass - here´s a PAPARAZZI SHOT of them out in the wild. / THE HAPPY READER - one of my favorite newsletters. I got hooked on a lot of books (it´s how my John Le Carre reading spree started two summers ago - can´t wait to watche THE PIGEON TUNNEL) through this one, which probably is a sign for advertising done just right. / "If the choice is, like, be the greatest writer of my generation or be fun at weddings, I want to be fun at weddings." CAROLINE O´DONOGHUE / "They’d made a 5 p.m. reservation, embarrassing, but they would have gone earlier if it were possible." A short story by Emma Cline with the most horrible PLOT TWIST and most accuratly described food stress.

 

 

 

A brass Christmas tree to-go: TREE KEY NECKLACE + some adornments for the tree that is you: ZIGGY EAR STUDS (in ACTION - worn by the lovely BARBARA this summer) / After visiting our Weihnachtsmarkt do go check out ORDERLY QUEUE OF ONE at KAUFLADEN FÜR ERWACHSENE - you might not regret it. / I will now leave you with LAST CHRISTMAS/ANGEL OF DEATH - be warned: you might be stuck with this forever!

Boo!

Here come some really scary pieces straight from our workbench to your virtual postbox. You almost can´t see them because they move as fast as those blurry TRUE BLOOD vampires, so it was really hard to snap pictures of them - a big thank you to MIRIAM KÖNIG for daring to have her picture taken wearing them.

Enjoy a tiny bit of spooky entertainment!


BIG SILVER SLIME STAR NECKLACE - gross but pretty.

 

 

 

 

 

 

All the slimey stars in one place: SMALL SLIME STAR NECKLACE, SLIME STAR EAR STUDS + BIG SLIME STAR NECKLACE. / Doesn´t get more autumnal than this: ROSEMARY BROWN BUTTER APPLE CAKE (you can basically substitute EVERYTHING, or you could also go down the PEAR route.) / A seamingly very lazy MUSHROOM PASTA, WHOLE WHEAT CHOCOLATE OAT COOKIES, GRAPE AND FENNEL SEED SCHIACCIATA by Ottolenghi + the APRON from our most favorite show THE BEAR to wear while cooking it all + some inspirations for COMMENTS to leave on various cooking sites after you have worked your way through these recipes.

 

 

 

Spooky KRITZIKRATZI for your hair - brass clasp and ebony pin to hold your locks or strands up. / A few things that might give you some pleasant creeps: A GHOST KITTY tutorial! / A SCARY HORSE PRINT! / The CHOCOLATE ROOM! / CORN, MISO & MASCARPONE! / It´s the perfect time to rewatch THE PALE BLUE EYE! / A short story to remember how awful being a teenager can be: THE ICE QUEEN! / RED TIGHTS! I want in on the trend - which ones do you recommend (that however might be too much RED)?

 

 

 

This one will never turn into a butterfly: CATERPILLAR RING  - available in solid silver or gold plated brass. / I seem to be oddly fascinated by this WEDDING look, the cakes and the inspirations for it - it´s almost eerie and therefore quite fitting for this newsletter´s theme. / The GHOST INFLUENCER of the season. / Jenny Odell´s 13 WAYS OF LOOKING - on collage and the practice of searching, finding, and filing. / TRUE DETECTIVE, an investigation by Olivia Laing: "The green velvet sofa was the slumped center of those stopped clock years. Eight o’clock, dinner eaten, the TV wheeled from its cupboard."

 

 

 

SMALL SLIME STAR NECKLACE + SLIME STAR EAR STUDS - both started out as wax carvings that then got cast in silver. / BEACH CATS & LILACS - Elizabeth Barker´s writing always gives me major WEETZIE BAT vibes. / Two books I´d like to read this season: THE VASTER WILDS by Lauren Groff: "Her hands are bloody, her heart is righteous and her head is full of scripture." + BIRNAM WOODS by Eleanor Catton on the sole reason I loved THE LUMINARIES so much. / "ISABEL didn't scream or scurry, she showed no rage and she showed no rancor, but she turned the witch into milk and drank her."

 

 

 

 

Solid silver O.T. RING in the wild. / Calling all zfkk Ultras - 18.11., 16 Uhr, Ostengasse 21: Ein kleiner Kunstort in Regensburg zieht große Kreise - anfangs von nur drei Personen bespielt, entwickelte er sich innerhalb von nur drei Jahren zu einem enorm aktiven kurzen Kunstzentrum und das alles Dank seiner rasant anwachsenden Fangemeinde: Die zfkk Ultras machen das ZFKK weit über die Ostengasse hinaus bekannt - es geht rund wie ein Quarkbällchen. Nun ist es an der Zeit die Fans selbst in den Mittelpunkt zu stellen, indem sich ein Beispiel an der wohl größten existierenden und im Stadtbild allgegenwärtigen Fangemeinde Regensburgs - den Jahn Ultras - genommen wird: eine quarkballsüße Hommage an ein Stück Fussballkultur der Stadt und gleichzeitig die Sichtbarmachung der steilen Erfolgs(fan)kurve des zfkk: Hallo zfkk Ultras! Join the fun and get FREE MERCH!





Boo! - again,



ANNA & WALDEMAR ARTMANN - WSAKE

No happier sight then a variety of frilly or plain, tiny or huge pansies in front of every garden center you come across. I want them all. All the colours and shapes. The yellow and black ones, that are also to be had in dark red, the white ones with the violet rims, the ruffled ones in faded purples and yellows... These right here - I managed to take a few pictures before they all got rain damaged - go very well with the golden pieces we just added to our collection.

Little unicorn says hello, too (all quotes on yellow in this post are from ARTMANN&DUVOISINs freshly launched colloborative website about how work interferes with your personal life in creative processes: SANFTE ARBEIT).



Above: A BIG FAT GOLDEN UNICORN KISS - don´t worry, it´s only gold plated so it won´t break the bank.

 

 

 

Little unicorn is wearing BOW NECKLACES, little unicorn is wearing bow necklaces made of pearls and vintage beads. Bow necklaces are making little unicorn happy. / Schnell noch in Rikes SALE stöbern und TORTE verschicken (WSAKE B-WARE ist auch zu haben.) / "From my screen to your heart" - 500 ways to end a letter according to AI. / I wanna eat everything in PARIS - can´t stop looking at the picture of that citrus tartelet, such a pretty thing...

 

 

 

KRITZIKRATZI for your hair: brass clasp + hand turned vintage ebony stick. / Haven´t tried these so far, but they do sound weirdly awesome: POTATOE CHIP COOKIES. / PERFUMED PANNA COTTA from TABLE FOR TWO. / Two more sweet cookbooks coming out I´d love to page through: LOVE IS A PINK CAKE (inspired by ANDY - one could even wear an ANDY shirt while baking!) + SWEET ENOUGH (There is a recipe for a  STRAWBERRY CAKE that supposedly tastes like a donut to be found in her newsletter!!!) / Five Little Pigs´ HEARBY BUTTER ROLLS. / A tart topping I never would have thought of: MORTDELLA, PICKLES & DIJON. / Does this PARMESAN GRATER work? Should I get one? Might go very well with my imported ESPRESSO MAKER.

 

 

 

Freelance lovers tiny CORAL HEART on a tiny gold plated necklace. / Hair GLASSES on Elsa, go see her DANCE with them. / A feeling of joy definitely arises from these golden stars and hearts for your EARS and NECK. / Helen Garner on happiness: FOR THE LONELINESS, FOR THE FORGIVENESS. / Of course I had no idea how LIGHTNING RODS work. / "Miserable, with no hope." A doctor made it her life´s work to find her hyperemesis gravidarum´s TRUE CAUSE.

 

 

 

Waldi recently found a few silver pendants hidden away in the many, many boxes in our workshop - he used to pay with these for a our dancing lessons at the local ballet school, where they got sold to tiny ballerinas, or rather the parents of tiny ballerinas - anyway, he´s selling off the remaining ones at a very special price: BALLET SLIPPERS / A gold plated O.T. RING in case you don´t feel so silver.

 

 

 

A single YELLOW DAISY, not a THOUSAND (did you see that link coming?!). / The CATERPILLAR is now also available in silver in case you don´t feel so golden. / BLUMENHAUS / A CLOCK the colour of this newsletter + a TABLE to put it on, on top of some wavy PLACE MATS. / NINA made me long for French lemon cake and Nigel Slaters FOXGLOVES and a SHORTBREAD so crumbly it falls to the floor.

 

 

 

A gold plated (what else) SUN SPROCKET on a silver necklace, length of your choice. / "At all costs I must go on being spoiled and petted. I need presents. I want something I could eat or wear or go to bed with." I had THE BLOATER read to me while working on this post and it made me feel delightfully FRIVOLOUS, now I´m hoping for a reedition of all of Rosemary Tonks books.

 

 

 

 

You know the drill by now: Valentine´s Day is the day when you get 14% off your order at WSAKE - just use code FATKISS at checkout to treat yourself to something smackingly sweet (custom orders excluded)!

In case you need some help deciding on what to get, here are some suggestions - above: A FAT KISS to wear around your neck + a tiny plump silver DAISY. / EXTREMELY TINY HEARTS for your ears.

 

 

 

A gold plated pet CATERPILLAR - we´re having that ring recast just now and it´s gonna be available in pure brass and silver too, so get in on the preorder at a very special discount! / A necklace that comes with a PUNCH. Solid silver, no jokes.

 

 

 

This summer our DOG NECKLACE was a special guest at the sweet wedding of our dear friends Rebekka and ARNE and we think he looks very happy to have been there (dreamy pictures by NADINE STENZEL). / Did you know said dog has a friend? Meet the FOX!

 

 

  

TOASTER GUY - gold plated brass, very nice fellow. / The TINY HEART RING - a lovely classic by now, we also have them for your EARS and NECK.
