Vernon Desmond Gross' Makume Goblets





I met Vernon, who, incidentally, made the monumental Budweiser horses sculpture that looms above their factory, fashioned a pair of delicately wrought, hammered silver drinking vessels, with macume' gane .....A friend of mine had a big crush on Vernon and thought the way to his heart would be to buy his art......but, as she could not afford any of his works, she called me to ask if I would purchase something! So, now i have these.....but neither of us got laid!

Nice goblets. Glad you still have them. Nice images, too. Thanks for putting them out for the world to see. Unfortunately the images I have on file are not as good as yours. Vernon
