apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Outrageous price

It looks like a little quality rasterbation is in order!

Wow, looks just as bad in a room! No, make that worse.

For godsakes take a picture of your own flatware and have this done at kinkos. It will look just as tacky but at least it will be cheaper.

Why so freaking expensive? Perhaps if I go to a screen shop I can make my own! Yikes!

Reminds me of Alton Brown's large silverware paintings on one of his sets.

I think we'd have much more fun making this one ourselves.
thanks for the diy reminder!

This reminds me of an awesome triptych I saw of birch trees at Design Public. Same concept, same scale, and half the price...

With the right facilities, all of these could be printed in half an hour. Total for all three.

I can see them being interesting in a cafe or restaurant, but they're a little intense for my home taste.

In my opinion, most of the merchandise in Anthropoligie is grossly overpriced. I go there just to see the inventive displays, and maybe check out the bargain room.

i'm with all of you on this. too friggin' expensive indeed, like most of their stuff. you could make the screens yourself and do this on plain paper for WAY less money, since you would only need one screen for each. as for the way it's displayed it in the picture...why would someone want that in their living room? the obvious choice is in a large loft kitchen, cafeteria or a restaurant.

I've always loved these! They have been around for a while. But I always imagined them in a cafe or resturaunt. I don't think they belong in a home though.

P.S.
As a matter of fact, I've seen these in a restaraunt actually. I think it was in Wallpaper Magazine (PSA: it's not a mag about wallpaper, it's a design mag, LOL) or V Man Magazine. (I can't remember which publication it was)

I'm seeing Archie's notion of rasterbating, but on a dining room wall... something to do over a buffet, if that's a problem in your life.

Outrageous?
well, let's start with the fact that it's handmade not mass produced in a factory and full of lead....
Also, it's made in France, where people get full benefits and pensions unlike most countries in Asia or here for that matter.
And, lastly, our dear old dollar is deflating in value...

would I pay that much for it? don't think so but, they are lovely in person.. maybe if I had loads of cash...

I agree that they're better in a commercial space. And a business can write off the expense.
