The best part? It’s all printed! The furniture, wall, pottery, food, and even the lace tablecloths were 3D printed; the wallpaper, rug, and upholstery were printed on the inkjet.
I bought my 3D printer so I could make those chairs!
In case you don’t remember, Miss Havisham is a character in Charles Dicken’s Great Expectations. After being jilted on her wedding day, she becomes a recluse, and refuses to change anything, leaving the wedding breakfast on the table and wearing her wedding gown until the day she died
WOW! What a great representation of that story! Amazing details! I always refer to an untouched dilapidation as a Mrs Haversham. Did you make two or did you distress the original? Or are they both half of the cloche and you turn it to see the before or the after?
Wow…you’ve managed to create a spectular mini snippet of Miss Havisham’s life. The pair of cranes is one of my favourite bits that you included. Amazing work!
This is absolutely stunning! I can’t believe you drew all those tiny details on the china with a sharpie. Great Expectations has always been one of my favourite stories. As a non-native speaker of English, 19th-century literature really helped me learn when I was in school. I spent hours reading Dickens, Austen, the Brontë sisters and all the other classics with a dictionary by my side.
There’s also a movie with Helena Bonham Carter as Miss Haversham! I’m sure there’s more than one but I remember watching this one during lockdown, it’s fairly recent.
Most of the movie versions (there have been a few) play Miss H as an old woman, but she was probably around 40 when she met Pip. HBC was lovely in the role.
