Amanda Simmons and the birds

Lovely work from Amanda Simmons who has set herself the challenge of working with colours she doesn't like.  She has developed an - erm -  glorified bird table.  I think this is just an experiment (the bird table I mean), and the vessels will find their way to being vessels in the long run. Check it out.  I've blogged before about how I admire Amanda's sharp design in a sector of the market where design can be limp, or the prices too low.  Amanda gets it about right. This is just another example of how she keeps herself on her toes.
