Flask and shot glass set
In tribute to the TCAA's 10th anniversary, Scott Hardy created this flask and shot glass set complete with a custom-fitted bloodwood presentation box and sculpted bucking horse closure. The flask, with distinctive forward lid, holds 20 ounces of spirits and weighs approximately 3 pounds empty. This set required 330 square inches of sterling silver sheet, 217 inches of sterling silver wire and more than an ounce of 14K gold. The set incorporates design, spinning, forming, sawing, soldering (143 different steps), sculpting and countless hours of hand engraving. Hardy noted 'This project took every piece of artistic, creative and technical ability I posses and it was a beautiful journey!' Sale price: $35,700
