Note: I'm still trying to decide how long to make the pole for some of these pieces, and if I should fix the spacing or not. When spread out wide it is easier to examine the unique qualities of the individual ropes but when pushed closer together the overall color gradiant is stronger. Is this even a decision I should make or should I leave it up to the buyer?
