Step into the vibrant world of Knick, a charming character from the bygones era. Picture him strolling through the Grand Arabian Bazar in Tunis, Tunisia, haggling over exotic spices and intricately designed plaster figurines. Fast forward to Paris, where Knick's spirit comes alive during Christmas time on the Boulevards, his heart warmed by the twinkling lights and the scent of fresh waffles. Back in his humble abode, Knick's Victorian flat is adorned with a painter's touch, boasting a Vitrine Display Cabinet filled with ornaments for stoves and a cat telephone cosy from Selfridges, 1919. His favorite spot, however, is by the kettledrum table, sipping a steaming cup of tea, lost in the symphony of memories.
