I'm not quite sure what you'd exactly call the stuff that Michael K creates...but it's all kinds of awesome.
Small booth at the SF Flower and Garden show...drawn in by the beautiful bright colors of spring flowers he had inside of his work...we couldn't tell what was better showcased, his masterpiece glass and wire creations or the flowers who were surely honored to be included in the visual tableau.
I guess I would describe it as bubbled glassed and wired art. Not very succinct or poetic right? I've only had one cup of coffee, cut me some slack!!
It was beautiful to look at, and it works perfectly in our electic home decor environment too...the bubbled recycled glass is modern yet the wire that twines around gives it that bit of old-fashioned french country flair.
You can click on his website url up above and check out the pictures of his goods. If I ever get around to putting flowers in mine, I will post a picture. In the meantime, it makes a great island warmer.
I walked out with one goodie and my Mom walked out with two. It was so hard not to take more, but you are only as good as what you can carry out at these types of events.
What also was a real pleasure was Michael K himself. He handcrafts everything, and you can tell he absolutely loves what he does. Such a passion for his work, he wants to tell you all about it and show off pieces that have been showcased in recent magazines or have been purchased by illustrious clients.
Even though he seemed surprised by his budding success...we were not. We loved the pieces and enjoyed the man who creates them..it is easy to see how he excels at what he does.
Affordable prices for the work & wonderful customer service, we said we'd be back, and he said he would gladly hold the piece I was looking at. When we returned, he already had it wrapped and ready to go...I just had to pay. What a gem. I'll be back for more once I have a bigger house--that elegant magazine rack is so calling my name. read more
