The Art Krannie

Mixed Media Bell Pulls

These slender works play with vertical rhythm—each one a narrow tapestry of color, texture, and story. The bell pulls combine hand-painted fabrics, stitched layers, and found objects into quiet columns of ornament and memory. Their height invites the eye to travel slowly, discovering small surprises: a charm, a bead, a fragment of jewelry that once belonged elsewhere. Each piece balances elegance and improvisation, holding together the shimmer of thread and the weight of history in a space barely two inches wide.

Size: approximately 2×14 inches (last piece approximately 2×20 inches)
Price: $145 USD each

Please note: colors may vary slightly due to lighting, photography, and individual monitor settings. Each piece is represented as accurately as possible.
