Olá

Há 10 anos que tinha uma coluna em alabastro no hall de entrada a usá-la como um pé para uma floreira . Sempre sonhei em colocar uma peça que combinava 100%. Valeu esperar cada segundo , pois a vida não nos para de nos surpreender . Também quero agradecer ao Zé que me vendeu a peça em uma das feiras da bagageira . Obrigado Zé !!!

O resto está nas fotos

Obrigado

Hi

I’m a nerd of Upcycling and transforming this in that and that in this . So , please be kind , it’s still a work in progress !!!

The process : sand it down, burned by torch, linseed oil , wax on the end .

Lucite for glass holders with aluminum and brass fittings

2 aluminum profiles for LED strip

A hand made brass bespoke lamp with metal shade

Burned jute rope for the “shelves”

Interesting way the fixing on the rope

Still to do : coasters ( I still don’t know how )

I want to accommodate a corkscrew, a vintage cast iron one

The wiring without being seen

Bom , hoje de madrugada enquanto fazia umas entregas , parei a carrinha ao lado de um caixote de lixo quando vi algo em cima da tampa . Fui ver ….😂😂😂😂 e agora podem ver também .

Well this is it . Hope you like the result .

Olá !

Um dia destes , estava na minha sala e algo não estava a dar certo no design . “Faltam dois candeeiros” disse para mim . Claro , tinha que ser algo ao meu gosto, algo que combinasse com a decoração da minha sala !!!

As peças que deram vida aos candeeiros vieram uma a seguir a outra : primeiro encontrei na rua as garrafas em grés esmaltado pele de laranja . A seguir vieram os abajures , também descartados por alguém . O resto tinha já nas minhas caixas de peças em latão que uso para criar . Assim sendo , tratei do assunto e agora aqui estão elas a serem expostas neste post .

Just came across this Irish 2 € coin . Cool ! 😎

The Project:

This time, I’m taking upcycling to a whole new level. I started with a pair of Chinese lacquered wooden vases, likely from the 1920s, featuring stunning hand-painted, embossed dragon artwork.

To push the boundaries of imagination, I paired them with something "insane": three 1960s-70s orange opaline glass globes I had in my "treasure stash." I managed to craft a brass transition piece that fits so perfectly it looks like they were born together.

The Result:

When I finished the assembly and flipped the switch for the first time... for a moment, the beauty literally blinded me. They turned out... well, exactly what you’re thinking right now. Pure magic.

The Tragedy:

I carefully packed them into cardboard boxes, labeled "Chinese Lacquer / Orange Opaline." However, due to a mix-up, one of the boxes ended up with a label from an old crystal vase.

When my dear wife decided to do a "deep clean," she threw away the box labeled "Chinese Lacquer." She thought it was just old parts. The other one—the "mis-labeled" one—stayed.

And that is how this lone survivor became the rarest piece in my collection.

Enjoy !!

Don’t throw away anything before you see this video . After that if you still want to do it ……..

I think this video will speak for itself!!!

Enjoy !!
