Nietzsche Nose Eyeglass stand, a handy holder for your glasses.
"A pair of powerful spectacles has sometimes sufficed to cure a person in love." F. Nietzsche
Say what you will about Friedrich Nietzsche, ( go ahead, get it off your chest), the man had an awe-inspiring mustache. I make this eyeglass holder as the perfect gift for the myopic philosophy buff in your life; also to fill a niche for Nietzsche kitsch - the much overlooked Nietzsche nose kitsch niche.
Cast in solid masses of durable urethane, with a felt bottom. Base is cold cast brass.
A bracket on the back holds the glasses' stems in place.
Approximately 7" tall (20 cm)
Additional eyeglass stands for men, women and others can be found here-

Wall mounted nose eyeglass holders with key hangin' mustaches available here:

So, what happens is this -
I make these sculptures. I make 'em out of clay or wood or hard coated styrofoam. I take great pains to get the originals right - and then,
Why then I make molds. Silicone rubber molds.
I cast duplicates from these molds out of urethane resin.
Lovely, very durable material.
And in some cases I polish 'em and in some cases I paint 'em.
In every case there are
procedures
that need to be performed.
These I do.
And I make little changes, tweaks, here and there, so that over time, the castings become more refined and closer to
perfect.
Closer.
I do all of this by hand, by myself.
For you, peaches.
