"Soon, my fingers will fumble and in my hands lies my life"

So beautiful. The last of their kind.

New pendant I've made. Bird is carved from boxwood, the branch is bubinga, and the leaves are boxwood as well, mounted to an ebony blackwood base. Available from my Etsy shop (UK only).

In today's episode of mystery wallpaper, we have this stuff!

Anybody know ANYTHING about these remnant samples? There are three patterns. In both cases the cross-hatch version went down first. In some cases, it was covered either by the small circles paper, in other cases, it was covered by the random organic pattern.

but!

In some cases there are two layers of the SAME pattern.

And all of it was on plaster.

And then it was all painted over.

I think this was out of date paper when it was installed, and may have been painted immediately after installation. It's all very old.

Clues, anyone?

Did Steffen perhaps accumulate such a thick layer of dust because we left him in the #ponyhoffrankfurt storage room? 🤔

Is he sawing up his bass guitar? 😱

In any case, Chris has found the right way to deal with Steffen's new hair. 😂

What's going on here? Have Chris and Denis hung up their instruments and become craftsmen? Anyone who listened to our interview on RadioX Frankfurt might have an idea what these guys are doing... 😏 In case you missed the interview, we've immortalized it on YouTube:
