This was a piece I made using cut up squares from another piece that did no go as planned. I went for a little funky look with the cutting of it. It's not perfect, but it was a good learning experience in fusing tiles together. I still have the 2 pot melts to fuse together and this was the trial for that process.

I pleased with it as well. I was going to slump it in the S-curve mold, but it was not quite long enough. For that mold I need a piece about 20 inches long to have a good effect, and this is 16" long.

It kind of reminds me of an incense burner.

How long is it? I'm not sure what I'd do with it but it is very pretty.

I'd have it right out on my coffee table!  Art doesn't have to be functional. If you enjoy it then it's doing what it was created to do!

It's 14.5" following the curve, and 14" straight across from tip to tip.

Kev,
Unique and very interesting - I love the colors and shape and I too agree that Art doesnt need to be functional.  I also have a perfect place for this art if you don't!

Well it won't match my decor but I do like it. I thought first thing that it was an insence holder? Isn't it? It can be, just drill a hole in one end and you're good to go :)
