The colony of Kittiwake vases has the two versions of frame. One frame is made with CDs and two have aluminium frames. Each frame has a diametre of 3.8 cm with a stainless steel suspension handle attached and holds a large glass test-tube. The surfaces of the frames have a satin scratch-brushed finish. They hang from stainless steel branches and will move in air-currents. A 1 metre fine stainless steel wirerope is provided.
The Kittiwake vases can hold single stem flowers or a small bouquet of flowers. They can be used to root cuttings or simply to hold beautiful dried seedheads.
The postage charge of £9 for UK delivery will be added at the checkout. Debit/credit card and PayPal payments are accepted.

The Kittiwake vase has arisen as a delightful means to reduce waste still further. I cut out the middle section of the discarded CDs and circles of aluminium, when making the frames for the paper-pulp vessels. With two further cuts, this will hold the large glass test-tube. This has become the Kittiwake vase. The central glass vessel measures 2.7 mm outer diametre and 15 cm length. Each vase weighs no more than 200g.
A fine stainless steel wirerope with a hook at each end is included. This is attached to the loop of the top stainless steel branch and will hang from a ceiling hook. It can also be hung from a curtain pole. If you are hanging from a curtain pole, please use the contact form to let me know, I will include a larger hook for this, instead of a smaller size. Also let me know if you require a different length of stainless steel wirerope, I can provide a shorter section. The hooks are made from the offcuts of the stainless steel branches of the mobile sculptures.
An oak wall-mount can be used to display the colony of Kittiwake vases as shown in one of the photographs. The oak wall-mount has a curved stainless steel rod. Here is a link to the oak wall-mount page https://balanced-earth.co.uk/oak-and-stainless-steel-wall-mount/
