bike chain bowl by graham bergh
posted by the scholar on April 16th, 2008filed under: design, green, home accessories, metal
i like the looks and the history of this repurposed bike chain bowl from graham bergh for his resource revival company.
purchase the bowl and other wonderful things at his mixtgoods shop, and find out more about graham on his website.

I’ve seen bicycle chain bracelets before. My uncle had one made out of the chain from the bike he rode while competing in the IronMan. But a bike chain bowl is something I haven’t seen before. I love it!

oh! that is a cool story about your uncle.
i love how pretty graham has made something so mundane and not necessarily pretty. glad you like it too! 🙂
