Hot or Not? Recycled Aluminum Platters by Boris Bally

We can't decide if Boris Bally's recycled aluminum highway sign platters should be considered art or tableware. Get a link to these interesting creations and vote after the jump...

The platters are $425. For that much we're not sure we could dirty them with cheese and crackers. What do you think?

I guess I'd go with "art." I'm not sure I would feel that a street sign could ever be clean enough to eat off of.

Totally in the art category -- I wouldn't want to lap up my food off of those things, but they are definitely pretty cool to look at. Apparently, it's not a new thing to use lawfully retired signs...an artist by the name of Tripp Gregson creates some really awesome briefcases and handbags for his High Traffic line -- http://bit.ly/u3kyG
