The Ampersand

Cast Iron

So this one is truly amazing. House Industries has come out with three dimentional cast metal ampersands. The cast sculptures are part of their Studio Lettering series. They come in both cast iron and aluminum. I like to think that you can season and heat up the cast iron one and use it to fry eggs.  I can’t help but notice ampersands are really very bird like. Maybe a prehistoric Moa or a Dodo, or even an Auk.

I don’t think I can afford the sculpture, but I will definitely be getting a t-shirt.
