{My Own Design of Brass Mushrooms}

 For our practical training college for mushroom growing, in The Netherlands, I once designed this 'happy mushroom family' for bulletin cover.  After that, I used my drawing for this brass mushroom window decoration.

In the eighties I've done this design and then I had those brass window decorations made in Germany. They are laser cut, hand polished and lacquered so they hardly ever get tarnished. 

This one is 23 cm high and it hangs in our veranda, underneath the Delft blue KLM houses.
The German company made them for me, with a minimum of 100 pieces each order. It was in September of 1987 that I did sell hundreds of them at the ISMS Congress (International Society for Mushroom Science) that was then held in Braunschweig, Germany.
My husband Pieter, gave two lectures there in 1987.

This one is 9 cm high and it hangs inside one of the window panes of the French door from the living room looking into the veranda. Look at→ Easter Season for more of those brass window decorations and towards the bottom of the post→ Tuesday May 4, dinner with friends you actually can see the brass mushrooms hanging as well.

The above photo lets the brass more come through, as the other photos are taken against the light and they appear dark.

This hangs in the kitchen bay window and it is not my design...

 Also this is hanging in the same window.
