Carpe diem is a phrase from a Latin poem by Horace. It is popularly translated as “seize the day”. Carpe means “pick, pluck, pluck off, gather”, but Horace uses the word to mean “enjoy, make use of.”
“Seize the day, trusting as little as possible in the future”, and the ode says that the future is unknowable, and that instead one should scale back ones hopes to a brief future, and drink ones wine.

    Some pieces are cast for us by our casters in Hockley Birmingham.
    They are a small family run concern and create for us without exception, the most beautiful replications of our work.
    We feel privileged that they have taken us aboard and feel in good company as their client list is endless.
    They produce work for artists such as Vivian Westward and The Queen.
    The castings are then hand finished and beaten to form our unique textured surface.
