Hummingbird & Flower Cut Metal, Haiti

Hand-crafted from cast-off 55 gallon steel drums, artists in Haiti follow four generations of tradition in metal sculpture. Exceptionally fine detail is the hallmark of this lovely little floral sculpture. Each bit of beading represents a hammer stroke and the bird's wings and the sunflower leaves are hand-riveted additions.

These pieces are great indoor or out~ for outdoor use the varnish will wear away over time and the sculpture will begin to rust naturally or you can maintain the original look by spraying it with a clear enamel every couple of years.

Dimensions: 18 x 20cm (7x 8in)

Fair Trade, as always!
