Museum Associates Gallery was a unique store in Seattle that dealt in very large fossils and crystals.

For 2 years I made custom stands for their pieces.

The first piece I did was the Walrus Skull.
It is a 40,000 year old skull.

I created the design and made the piece as a test by the owner.
He had been trying to sell the skull for 5 years.

A week after I completed it, Sylvester Stallone bought it while in Seattle, shooting Assassins.

After that I did many stands for them.

After 2 years they sold the store and went into brokering the huge pieces to museums and architects.
