Abstract (en)

A method of making a so called pine-cone spiral decorative element of metal, which is formed from a plurality of bars (1), generally four or eight in number, having circular or polygonal cross-section, cut in desired length, comprises steps of bending each bar (1), whose end sections (3,3) remain straight; welding at both their ends (5,5) the end sections (3,3) of the bars (1), which are placed side by side and angularly spaced so that the bars look like meridians of an unfinished product (4) formed according to a rotation body; and mutual rotation of the one welded ends (5) of the bars to the other ends (5) thereof by a desired angle. Further, a machine for embodying the method of the invention is disclosed.
