The "Island" Map
Lady V herself found and "liberated" this old map from the personal office of a gang boss on Taris after escaping her cell and bindings and going on a small slaughter local Taris gangs to this day call "The crimson escape." Lady V had purposefully let herself be captured by the Taris gang as they had something she needed. Ships. No citizens or working staff were hurt that day on Taris, only the gang Lady V slaughtered in her escape, the woman never could figure out where the map was actually pointing to so Lady V later went on to sell the map in an auction.
"Wyyyschokk" Circlet
This circlet wasn't just a randomly designed piece, it's design was based on Kashyyyk and it's supposedly most dangerous creature "Wyyyschokk" or "Kashyyykian Giant Weaver" these creatures were thought to be extremely dangerous due to their immobilization "tactics" of using their giant webs and copious amounts of poisons and because they were thought to be extremely intelligent by Wookie hunters that hunted the creatures for food.
Horn Headband
This obviously Devaronian inspired headband isn't just designed based on Devaronians' it was originally designed after Lady V and her wife had just about finished some business on Devaron and were on their way through the planet's starport to their ship. The two overheard a young female Devaronian and a doctor at the starport discussing how the female Devaronian wanted horns somehow surgically placed on her head as if they were always there, the doctor the female Devaronian was discussing the subject with laughed and shrugged off the subject and the two wives left the planet after that. The inspiration for the design of the horns was not from some elaborate adventure but a few moments of observation.
Draigon Box
The inspiration for this piece was originally found when Lady V and her wife were visiting Tatooine on a business trip, Lady V after completing her own business was waiting near a market for her wife whom still had business on the planet. V observed many things that day but the most memorable was a Jawa vendor that was buying old scrap and droids and repurposing them into little creatures and sculptures of scrap parts and pieces, V waited until her wife had completed her business before telling her wife of the idea she had gotten from the Jawa vendor and the two agreed they should make it some sort of product they sold.
Dream Catcher
The design for this piece was discovered by Lady V and her adopted daughter when the two went on a "cultural" trip to Cathar. The two spent near to a month on Cathar learning and experiencing what they could, Lady V's daughter had been more than excited about the trip and spent a great deal of her own free time speaking with Cathar traders and merchants for pieces of wood, feathers and fabrics. Lady V didn't learn why until their voyage off of the planet where her daughter revealed she wanted to try and recreate something she had learnt about on Cathar from a Cathar clan member, a dreamcatcher that was said to fend off bad dreams and capture the good ones as "memories" in it's web like design. Lady V and her wife later went on to make a dreamcatcher of their own design for the store.
Wookie Remembrance Bracelet
The Wookie remembrance bracelet is a piece in the store due to a "cultural" trip Lady V, her wife and their daughter took to Kashyyyk to learn about Wookie culture. Their daughter grew close to a few of the Wookies inhabiting the area Lady V and her family were staying in and learnt that recently there had been a Wookie hunting party that had gone missing due to what the Wookies thought might have been Wyyyschokks. The Wookies of that tribe offered V and her family some Wookie remembrance bracelets and showed Lady V's daughter how to make them, as her daughter was the only one really capable of communicating back and forth with the Wookies of Kashyyk. So on the voyage off of the planet Lady V and her wife agreed that they would sell Wookie remembrance bracelets to honour the Wookie culture.
Lightsaber Wielding Twi'lek Model
The inspiration behind the design for this model is a simple story. One of Lady V and Sarai's daughters had made a set of models similar to this of herself and all of her siblings. Vi and her wife took in the idea and thought it would work best for the "Oddities & Ends" section of the store and after some trial and error the wives came up with this lightsaber wielding model.
Lady V's Spiced Brandy
It took a LOT of trial and error for Lady V to prepare her publicly sold product known as "Lady V's Spiced Brandy" and quite the bit of credits through the cost of ingredients for the alcohol. The actual "brew" is made with a small variety of herbs and spices that burn the throat faintly as it is ingested, the mixing of the chosen herbs and spices causes an incredible kick however. Causing the consumers' emotions to become "stronger" and "freer" as well as boost moods, some people would say the mood boosting properties of the "brew" make the slight burn worth it for those who wish to try something a little more....Different in flavour and sensation than the "standard" alcohol offered elsewhere.
Lady V's Hard Brandy
This "brew" was one of Lady V's later productions meaning there was less trial and error but it was still very much a thing Lady V had to go through in order to perfect the "brew" enough to have it brought into public sales in the store. This brew is made intentionally as "undiluted" as possible to the point a vast amounts of consuming the alcoholic beverage can prove not only harmful but possibly even fatal to the body. The safety instructions printed on the back of each bottle of "Lady V's Hard Brandy" state that two-three bottles a week is a safe limit of consumer consumption.
