Archive

This is not sales inventory — it is the collection that has shaped the taste of My Daily Grails. Pieces we have collected, studied, and preserved for their technique, construction, or conceptual audacity. Some pieces return as sales inventory; others simply remain here, as a reference for what we mean by "archive-driven".
