I’m afraid the ferry staverman link is not working…

They are amazing structures! Love what looks like woven threads around them…so intricate. (The link isn’t working, btw.) Thanks, Grace!

Grace, it seems he calls them simply, Objects. The similar looking primary-colored “Trees” on the linked site are 2 meters-3.5 meters tall! Very cool.

Those are great– they remind me of wedding table ornaments from the 70s ;)

Love these! There’s something very Christmas-y about them. Not sure why, but they remind me of the holidays.

i think they’re just eye-candy. but if you want to inquire about purchasing one of these originals (they don’t look like retail pieces to me) i’d just shoot the artist an email via their website. it’s the best bet.

I love them. Are there any directions for making them?
