When you were a child, do you
remember, winding a grass blade around your finger?“
Grass Rings
The concept of this
work is the unique winding of a blade of grass and its materialization into
metal – the grass imprint is burnt-out of the mould and cast.
You can choose from several different aesthetic designs:
- Grass - already wound rings of grass -
ready to be cast into a one-of-a-kind ring. (including
a photographed documentation)
- Iron or
- Stainless steel.
- Sterling Silver – with a traditional
finish or with white plaster left in the grooves.
- Gold – 18K or 22 K in yellow, red rosé
& white - Pd 14%.
I can even imagine, grass growing in galleries for customers to wind
their own rings there or alternatively one can use any blade found on a meadow.
If you would like to see your grass ring in gold – we can make it happen! ep
P.S.
Here, I would like to add, that my grass rings are divided into two
levels of production - the unique, one-of-a-kind ring and the serially
processed ones.
For better business reasons, I selected grass rings wound by me, showing
special shapes and details suited best for making a mould and for reproduction.
From my point of view, this concept seems to vanish into thin air.
The sales price beats the concept!
But with most people who are excited and even laugh happily about having
a grass ring, the loss in quality does not seem to be of such importance – even
though I explicitly point that out to them, every time.
