amber waves of grain

growing up in cali, i saw a lot of stuff growing, but not wheat: berkeley is too foggy for grains. but many years back, my design firm was hired to design the new offices of the national feed & grain association in downtown dc., and they had these amazing victorian-era gold-plated wheat sconces that i have never forgotten...these adjustable glass wheat fronds are a modern riff on this historic icon. not for my place, but cool, nonetheless.
