Klavervagt ~ Piano Guardian

     Vi har en ny klavervagt.
     Troldens klaver, der atter er hjemme i Uglebo, står på en væg mellem to døre. For at dørene ikke skal ramme klaveret, når de lukkes op og i, er der en ugle på vagt i hver ende.
     En af dem var slidt op. Det samme var en af Skribentens gamle skjorter. Men bare fordi en skjorte er slidt på manchetter, krave og andre steder, er der stadig en masse godt stof i den.
     Der var i hvert fald nok til en klavervagt.

     De hvide sting er altså gyldne, og klavervagten er mørkere i virkeligheden.

Og nej, man har ikke brug for øjne for at være en god klavervagt, og heller ikke for at nyde musikken når Trolli er på besøg.

The piano belongs to Trolli. It is now at home in the Owlery again, where it is situated on a wall between two doors. To prevent the doors from hitting, and harming, the piano when opened, we have two piano guardians, one at each end. I hope it is no surprise that they are in the shape of owls.

One of the guardians was worn out, same as an old shirt of the Writer's. But worn out shirts may be worn thin at collar, cuffs and other strategic places, but there's still lots of only slightly worn fabric in a shirt. At least sufficient for a new piano guardian.

The stitches looking white are actually golden, and the guardian is darker than in this photo.

No, you do not need eyes to guard the piano and enjoy the music when Trolli visits.

  2. I like this! I'd never thought of a guardian to keep doors from hitting furniture.
