A Bordeaux atelier hand-builds limited-edition electric and resonator guitars from steel, including unique pieces and small runs.

Why it surfaced

Oxyde treats oxidation as part of the instrument’s identity rather than a flaw. The site describes a collaboration between a metalworker and a guitarist-electronics specialist, with each numbered guitar carrying its own material history; listed prices start at €1,950.

The Largest Cat Has No Number

August 14’s newborn domains include an unnumbered giant among thirteen catalogued glossy cats, a shareable Visual Snow Syndrome simulator, two independent Colombian relief directories, and a snail farm with races, courtship, and its own Gazette.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-14 Domain Arrivals issue.
