    I think it’s an art piece now

    On that note

    these two pieces together

    Is it all one big piece, or is it three pieces working together 😄

      Yes, I had to fight my own pedantry to post that phrasing! It’s one piece, but calling it two pieces connected by a handle is the only way I could think of to describe it and actually be understood. I challenge you to come up with a title for this which is both easy to understand and topologically accurate.

        Yes completely fair! I’m actually not sure about what would count as a separate “piece” with glassware and ceramics. There’s probably a mereological argument for why its one or the other

          Never heard that word before. Wikipedia: “Mereology is the philosophical study of part-whole relationships.” Fascinating that there’s a name for that!
