If you\u2019re anything like us, you\u2019ll be busy on January 19th celebrating Edgar Allan Poe\u2019s 217th birthday. The master of the macabre, poet of sorrow and the eternal muse for the gothic soul, his timeless stories and poems gave beauty to melancholy and meaning to madness.<\/p>\n
His life was as haunting as the world\u2019s he created-orphaned at a young age, marked by loss and forever walking the line between brilliance and despair, he transformed personal tragedy into undying art. Love, death and longing were not merely themes in his work, but lived experiences woven into every verse and tale he left behind.<\/p>\n
So, join us in honouring his legacy. You might do this by sipping your blackest coffee from our new Poe’s Raven: Mug & Spoon set<\/a>, or noting your darkest desires in the elegant Poe\u2019s Raven foiled notebook<\/a>. Perhaps you will light a candle with our Poe\u2019s Raven Candlestick<\/a>, or wear your Reflections of Poe pendant<\/a> proudly around your neck. However you choose to celebrate, make sure you do it with Alchemy<\/a>.<\/p>\n Quoth the Raven: \u201cNevermore\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you\u2019re anything like us, you\u2019ll be busy on January 19th celebrating Edgar Allan Poe\u2019s 217th birthday.
