Artist's Comments

A bottle themed after one of my favorite books by Ray Bradbury: Fahrenheit 451. Wear this pendant on a necklace, or hanging from your review mirror; it will be sure to remind you of this favorite and be a great conversation piece.

This bottle contains burned pages of a poor book that gave its life for this project (I nearly set my kitchen table on fire getting them). The cork is sealed with silicone glue to keep the contents safe from moisture. On the outside of the bottle is a glass etching of a flame. The entire bottle is then wire-wrapped with a bead-dangle and a copper piece with the number 451 stamped onto it.

This bottle took forever to make; it was difficult to get all of the pieces I wanted for it together.

This bottle, and others like it, available in my ArtFire store: Oddments and Tweaks

Brilliant, yet horrifying, since books are so dear. I hope you burned one of Ann Coulter's books to get this or maybe a creationist textbook.

The copper is a nice touch -- reminiscent of fire equipment and water fixtures.

No, an evolutionist's textbook, since I'm a creationist myself.

Hehe, actually it was an old Ann McAffrey book. (Did I spell her name right?) And I mean REALLY old and beaten up. I was going to burn one of the Twilight books, but I didn't have any.

And no sense in BUYING one and making Ms.Meyers any richer.

I follow.
:iconzerohournineam:
I like this one best. How many do you have?
:icongenevevex:
I currently have three of this type available.
