The ball and Banksai nut

 
This is an organic form that presents the natural structure of an Australian banksia nut. The nut has been turned to create a smooth handle where you can fit your hand in comfortably around the smooth surface. This is a strong comparison to the organic and honest structure at the top and bottom end of the object, where is the nut natural formed. A brass ball has been attached to the end of the object by a piece of brass rod. The rod moves in motion of your hand swing what creates sound.
