The idea behind this build is simple and charming: take the familiar shape of lily flowers and rebuild them entirely in metal. The result is a handmade arrangement of two large lilies, and it reads as a real flower display rather than a metal exercise, right down to the vase it stands in.
Each flower is built from shaped sheet metal petals with a silver finish. Every petal carries a distinct central ridge and a curved profile, and in my view that ridge and curve lift the blooms away from a flat, cut-out look. The centers hold stamens made from copper-toned metal nails with flat circular heads, a neat reuse of everyday hardware. Stems and downward-curving leaves are formed from metal strips with a glossy copper or orange finish, and the contrast between the cool silver petals and the warm stems does a lot for the overall look.
The maker welded the parts of the flowers together, and the joins look very tidy. The arrangement stands in a green-tinted glass vase shaped like a Coca-Cola contour bottle, with embossed branding on its surface, and the vase bottom is filled with rounded white and gray pebbles. The whole piece is displayed on a carpeted wooden floor.
One open question for me: the petals are formed sheet metal, and it is fair to wonder whether the edges are sharp enough to cut. That is the one thing I would want to hear about before picking a piece like this up.
