Three Lucky Pigs


Material

- 3 bronze pigs in different position
- Chinese ceramic beads
- seed beads
- black cord

Concept

These three pigs have weight. So I thought it would be nice to convert them into paper weights because they are too small as an art object.

But they looked too ordinary as paper weights. For Chinese, pig is a symbol of luck so I gave each of them Chinese embellishment. I tied Chinese ceramic beads to their necks then combined it with colorful seed beads in the body.

Now they look like pet sitting on your paper..
