What is this piece of decor, and what is it for?
This item was a bad wedding gift, and appears to be from the '70's. It sits on a small marble base and is about 22" high. The center support that runs the length of the object is made of three sections of orange, faceted plastic or acrylic. The top is brass(?)-like with arms coming out to the sides. These arms have sort of an elaborate design with a tiny cluster of grapes on either side. Two yellow-orange glass dishes molded like sunflowers are suspended by chains that hook to the arms of this object and hang on either side. It looks similar to a tall, old-fashioned scale, but does not move at all, and is definitely not a scale! Thus far, neither friends or parents can figure out what it is. It's quite hideous, but my husband and I would love to know what it was used for. Candy dishes? Fruit dishes? However, this thing is so top-heavy, it really wouldn't be good for holding anything... Please enlighten us! I can e-mail a photograph to anyone who is interested.
It is a Faux scale. meant to display,gaudy,tacky objects. this kind of thing was the rage in the late 60s early 70s. my granny had something like this on her buffet in the dining room. she had glass fruit in the hanging dishes--every color in the rainbow. hers was made of gold-colored plastic with "crystal" hanging dishes and even had a faux dial with a faux hand that pointed to the "weight" of the fruit. i dont think this hand actually moved, think it was just painted on, but i cant totally recall all the details. it was very hideous and her cats knocked it over constantly so most of the "fruit" was riddled with cracks where it had been glued back together. Oh , btw, there was also a gold plastic cherub or gargoyle on the top that was either holding or blowing into a cornucopia. my grandma also had orange swag lamps, green shag carpet, and a "hi-fi" that was a big white plastic globe on a pedestal! hard to believe but some of that shit is actually back in vogue today, better get your Faux scale appraised before you toss it.
Grape Design
Can someone help me determine the independent and dependent variables in these cases?
Plan 1:
Problem-Which fast food cup keeps drinks the coldest the longest?
Brief design description-I am going to to take 3 fast food medium sized cups and determine which cup keeps the measured liquid coldest the longest.
Plan 2:
Problem-Which stain is hardest to remove?
Brief design description-I am going to take three substances; Blood, oil, and grape juice each of the same amount and experiment to determine which stain is hardest to remove.
PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! IF YOU NEED MORE INFO EMAIL @ rmw0696@verizon.net
-Thanks (:
Plan 1:
independent: type of cup
dependent: time it takes for liquid to warm up x degrees
Plan 2:
independent: type of stain
dependent: percent visibility of stain? - you might want a more technical formula
