On Creativity
If you've been searching on Ebay or Google or Yahoo for real, handcrafted mobiles, you've found the right page. A little history for you: The first mobile was the creation of the mechanical engineer, artist and humorist Alexander "Sandy" Calder. A mobile can float above your living room or your corporate mezzanine. The mobiles you see here are made for indoor display. Mobiles show best where there is freely circulating air.
