MAGIC MUSHROOMS
Whether you are a mycophile (a lover of funghi) or simply looking for some creative magic in your life, I have made some sweet umami magic mushroom book sculptures to adorn your bookshelf. This medium size cloche holds 2 carved book mushrooms with a double-sided pale blue butterfly and mushroom inserted between the pages.
This listing shows the limited edition collection I have made carved from different vintage books. Each one turns inside-out a little differently, sometimes the sculpture captures the blank edges and sometimes they are carved through the lettering giving each one an individuality of tones. No single sculpture is alike.
PLEASE WRITE IN THE MESSAGE SECTION WHICH BOOK YOU WOULD PREFER. The first photo shows the mushroom, the second photo thereafter shows what is written on the base of the sculpture and so forth. All the information of the book it was carved from is on the base so that its’ history is always kept with it.
If no message is left, I will send you a surprise one from the collection.
Mushrooms 1 – Heidi 1976 by Johanna Spyri
Mushrooms 2 – Bambi 1961 by Felix Salten
(The cloche measures 6.7cm in diameter and is 10.5cm tall.)
These sculptures were created to use up any paper removed in the making of my Secret Vintage Booksafes. I try not to waste any of the paper i carve out and these endearing three dimensional book sculptures were the result. They are a wonderful dimension on your bookshelf for the bookish amongst us.
