Created for the Lacehouse in Nottingham. The design is not as intricate or detailed as the Queen's College Masquerade Ball Mask.
Masked Balls
Masquerade Balls during the 15th century were Royal affairs where the King and his courtiers could dress up in all their finery, wear masks and pretend to be someone else. There were many types of Balls from Bal des sauvages ("Wild Men's Ball"), Bal des Ardents ("Burning Men's Ball") to very formal Balls called Moriscos.
In the 16th century in Italy they attracted the gentry and upper classes; the idea caught on and began to appear at various festivities and events around the country. Their appeal became wider as did the lavish costumes. Venice soon became one of the centres for Masquerade Balls - as it is today. Each year in February hundreds of people flock from all over the world to attend the many Mask Balls held. Many are by invite only and can be very exclusive.
They are fun, lots of frivolity; are something different and do require guests to participate. A Vodka Luge can aide the fun and excitement.
Carved for Queen's College Oxford, an elegant Winter Masquerade Ball Mask. This particular design is very intricate and detailed.

Double Mask Vodka Luge
Jayne of Alpro UK contacted us wanting for their Masquerade Ball a Vodka Luge in the shape of not a single mask but a double mask. She sent us a design of what they wanted - she was very specific! We created the Vodka Luge precisely to her specifications. The result was, as you can see, a very…
Masquerade Ball Mask
The theme to 42 Commando Royal Marines Officers' Summer Ball 2014 was a Masquerade Mask Ball - bal masqué. Their Winter Ball (January 2014) theme was " The 1920's" and asked us for a Tommy gun to be carved and created. Their Summer Ball theme was very different and certainly in keeping with the ambient temperature…

Luge of the week
The Classic Ski Jump is an elegant and beautiful sexy design; a good angle of attack for the drink to bolt down the ski run, one or two surface channels and standing around 80-100cm high. Phenomenal. A GREAT functional and time-less shape. Don't wait for the Winter Olympics - this is a Luge for all seasons and every year.
If you are a party-loving person and love to set the perfect…
