Making a octopus sculpture with spoons and forks

Today I am going to show you the metal octopus I made in my workshop in Nice, French Riviera, France.

I work in gilding workshop and I create my own jewelry brand on the concept of recycling.
I do the same by making little sculptures using Forks and soup spoons.

I cut the handles of the cutlery

I saw some of the spoons to form the body of octopus

The two spoons are then welded together

The Forks are then welded and must be shaped for the tentacles

I retrieve luster elements for the eyes that I fix on the spoon

I catch up with the tools and when the general form is satisfactory, we can go to the next step.

I create also the fixation mount it in glass bell.
For this octopus I decided to make a black finition

I put red stones in the eyes

The result!
