Significant Objects

“Significant Objects, a literary and anthropological experiment devised by Rob Walker and Joshua Glenn, demonstrated that the effect of narrative on any given object’s subjective value can be measured objectively.”

The project involved finding low cost objects at garage sales and thrift stores and creating stories about them that might enhance their value, as proven in auctions on eBay.

See if you can replicate a web page of the same kind that includes both the artifact, a story, and make it look like some kind of auction site.
