For Whom the Bell Tolls
Mt. Everest is the mother of all mountains. The mother of all adventures. And for the adventure girl, the mother of all dreams.
And until you make the trek, you can continue to admire Mt. Everest from afar. Or get a close-up with an environmental art sculpture created by Bells from Everest.
The brainchild of Jeff Clapp, a metal sculptor in Maine, he transforms discarded oxygen tanks into unique pieces of art. Inspired by a National Geographic documentary on the huge amounts of garbage on Everest, Jeff traveled to Nepal and returned home with 130 oxygen cylinders.
Fresh from top of the world, the Bells from Everest collection includes one-of-a-kind ornamental bells and bowls. Each distinctive piece is signed and numbered by Jeff. Or spread the love and get a jump on the Christmas holidays with a sparkly Everest ornament.
Get a piece of Everest without the altitude sickness or breaking the bank. And be a do-gooder in the process. Support Bells from Everest and you support the clean up campaign as well as the local sherpas who collect the oxygen tanks.
So even if you're unable to go to the mountain, ring the bell, and the mountain comes to you.
