Excess spurs removed by worker, which are then recycled in a smelting furnace. Rough edges are sanded and grinded.
The third shot from Cafe du Vaudeville, where every hot drink comes with chocolate mousse and hot chocolate consists of hot milk and bowl of dark chocolate buttons (I thoroughly approve). Bit overpriced, but very nice (though either very forgetful or in no great hurry). Ideal for watching the beautiful people going by (or those working there). There was one odd bit when they told us they had run out of pancakes but then changed their minds (presumably having remembered what pancakes are actually made of. Cue sotto-voce comments about countries which run out of flour [there had been a few things dotted round town which had given the impression everything has to be ordered from China] and one horse towns, although it is a Francophone one horse town, so maybe it's only a one horse town because they ate all the others).
Son no 3 has done his best to make his new pad feel like home. It may not be a crystal chandelier, but his fake hawaiian garland brightens up a plain shade!
taken on Light Night, but nothing to do with it other than they are lights (In a building where you're not meant to take photos... cough cough)

Marrakech back streets ....where manufacturing of iron work takes place for household goods, here lampshades etc...the air is thick with the welding metal fumes...the engineering appears to be first class! and the conditions they work in are so cramped and small..
the end product, second to none.
Rajasthan India Retro light fitting with architectural detailing of straight lines of concrete boxing on ceiling
This lovely object, which I am glad I don't have to keep clean, is on the half-landing of a friends hotel in Poole, close to Branksome Dean Chine.
This should have flickr members working hard to get their living rooms looking this good. Yes, this IS the latest fashion! :-)
An ornate light fitting turned on, with the central front door and its fanlight in the background (1987).
A light shade made from an old, retired, lace shawl which is still very beautiful but had stains on it that were unremovable except by the use of scissors. Also used a coat-hanger that had had the gong. I found I could drape all sorts of pretty, light-friendly materials over the creation, for different effects. It now lives in the bathroom where we can trip out on the patterns it creates on the walls.
