Talk about a unique combination of materials, this Steel and Stone Cello Sculpture is created out of (yep, you guessed it!) steel and river stones. It's an amazingly life-like, free-standing, and full-sized rendition of the instrument complete with a copper-stringed bow. The fact that it's only the outline of the instrument keeps it a light and airy piece without sacrificing any of the the musical essence the artists (Nerio Festa and Heidi Hummler) wanted to capture. Can be placed indoors or out, made in California. $3800

Looks like you could actually pick this up and play it!

The cello is my favorite musical instrument, and this is a beautiful tribute with playful materials. It may be light and airy in it's outlined form, but I agree with Danny, it also looks like it could be played. I love it!
