The small town of Kolchugino in the Vladimir region is not yet the main target of tourists travelling to the Vladimir region, but once there was one of the main metallurgical plants, famous throughout the Soviet Union

стружка и срез металлической заготовки

Thanks to my father, an engineer at the Experimental Plant of Qualitative Alloys, who went to the plant in Kolchugino from time to time, the name of the town is familiar to me, and its image for me has always been associated with metal: the mirror-like shine of the kettle, which looked absolutely cosmic for someone who was used to the home enameled or school cantine aluminum tea kettle standard.

Kolchugino no longer produces teapots, as well as most of what my father went to see. Demand and manufacturers change. But glitter, metal and fancy shapes are what Kolchugino evokes in my mind.

Обрезки снова пойдут в переплавку, а заготовки поедут к заказчику

Готовый арт-объект или мусор?

Такие заготовки потом тянут, делают трубы и другие металлические детали
