" A Moment in Time..."
Sometimes in Life, Fate & Destiny guide our footsteps and lead us where we need to be at a given moment in time, a synthesis, that makes it possible for something wonderful to happen…a combination of two ancient crafts that find association with each other, an empathy and understanding, which leads to creative artistry and magical innovation. Such a moment in time has happened and the result is “The Victorian Collection” a truly stunning catalogue of Magic Effects, Accessories & Classical Apparatus from Five of Hearts Magic Productions…featuring Ornamental Lathe Work in styles dating from the 17th Century : Precision Turning, Spiral Columns, Fluted, Wattle , Eccentric Cutting and Rose Engine Turning .These highly unique & original styles meet in perfect harmony with the principles and methods of Classic & Contemporary Magic available today…
This Collection begins here and now and will make its official debut at The Magic Circle Centenary Celebrations in July 2005… but it is hoped that it will make its passage through time, and ultimately its mark on the Magicians of the 21st Century as they gather in London to celebrate the Magic of Yesterday and The Heritage and History that began with the Magic Circle…our inspiration comes from the magic that has gone before, and the great performances that we can only imagine…
“The Victorian Collection” is our tribute and a testament to what can happen in a moment of time…
