Messiah
Failed Experiment
in Zocalo v2.0
See the [URL=http://www.nordiskamuseet.se/upload/Images/3427.jpg]Chandelier[/URL] with the horses and coins?
I made it. Its part of an exhibition at the Nordiska Museet in Stockholm together with "North meets South". It is inspired by russian folk-art, as is all the objects in the part of the exhibition made by the students in my now former school. The coins are from all over the world (yes, even New zealand), 150 in total iirc.
Ooh, and H.R.H Crownprincess Victoria was there at the grande opening. [URL=http://www.nordiskamuseet.se/Upload/images/3440.jpg]Here she is[/URL] with one of the seamstresses in the same year as me at the school. :)

Then some of your coins are going to be out of date in a month. All our coins except the $1 and $2 coins are being changed. :)

[B]looks very cool Messiah but why the super heavy chain ? [/B][/QUOTE]
Its a nod to the beginning of the century when blacksmiths bought chain and hammered out the rest of their stuff, seen in various forestry tools around the day. Also, I thought it looked cool.. ;)
The funny thing is, around half of the people I talk about it with think it looks good, and the other half thinks it looks out of place. My teacher were one of the latter, and my grades suffered for it.. :rolleyes:
[B]Holy crap that is cool, you are definitely skilled with metal! Hmm, I have a nice 9' ceiling in the family room of the new house that is just begging for a cool fixture...

Hehe.. Thanks, unfortunately, it was too much of a time sink to ever make one again, and I think Ill keep the original.. :)
