Oscar Wilde is a quintessential queer author - and one I just love - and his book The Picture of Dorian Gray is one of those books that people assume had queer characters. It was illegal at the time to be gay, so it's not stated outright, but I agree. I think that's what Wilde was going for with some of the characters. Therefore, for today's Etsy Pride, I'm going to share some Dorian Gray items I found on Etsy!

This might be my favorite item here! I love how cool the floating quote looks. If I had my own house, I'd get more than one quote and have them in various rooms. One day!

What a beautiful scarf! And I don't even use matches but I just love that little matchbox. And I love that quote, but honestly there are so many thought-provoking quotes in this book!
Writing gloves! I love them!
I kind of love the idea of having writing gloves! It sounds so cool!
I want every item on your list! I think you gave me some awesome ideas for what to get Belle for Christmas. Oscar Wilde's life story is sad because he was persecuted for possibly being gay while his books sold like crazy. If he were alive today he would get the accolades he really deserves for writing so well. He is a legend.
I did not know that about Oscar Wilde! Shows you how well I know classic authors. I love all the items you've shared here, there are some really unique ideas!
