THE MUTED WAITER IN SUPPLICATION
Here’s my new stuff that I know will interest the ladies (mostly ladies) out there. This one is for you to the plantitas with a fondness for succulents, bonsai, or miniature plants.
This plant stand is not the kind that’ll take floor space. It mounts unto tabletops or the center console or the entryway bureau that needs sprucing up. Thus, this plant stand is the Lamborghini that trumps all low-slung, floor-bound plant mounts due to this functionality.
Its simplistic design allows the focus on the plant without rubbing attention away from it. I’ve seen many designs on Pinterest. Too often, I find the curves overtly elaborate and ornamentations heavy for my taste. No doubt, the bends and bows and the intricacies of those minute details are breathtaking, but isn’t it fitting that, as the saying goes, the wine should come first before the vessel? Between the plant and its stand, how then do we reconcile the adage above?
Yet, it is unlike saying that the artistic touch wasn’t there. The curves are there but muted - not loud. A little more on the twists, and I will be teetering on the baroque. But this one, wow! It is perfect, and I like it. From four feet away, I can see a muted waiter with food platters on outstretched arms, bowing before a celestial being in perpetual adoration or hoping and praying that, for a passing moment, whatever he offered on its platter the gods might like it too.
I thought you like my creation too. For Php 400, take this home. Better yet, call me so I can arrange for its free delivery. Caveat: this thing sells fast.
