PROLOGUE FOLIO I

The House of Reclaimed Things

Every fragment of post-consumer matter holds a forgotten dignity. Here, in the gilded hall of recycle.auction, salvaged copper, weathered timbre, and reclaimed glass are presented as the curated treasures they have always been.

The catalogue is sparse. The auctioneer is patient. The materials — eternal.
