Product Description

Crafted from recycled 55-gallon steel drums by village artisans in Haiti, this stunning garden inspired piece of art is truly one-of-a-kind!

The process of turning sheets of metal into beautiful art is all done by hand. Steel drums used to transport oil into the capital of Haiti are cut, the oil is burned off to clean the metal, and then flattened in order to create stunning, upcycled art.

Measures 11 by 12 inches.

Suitable for Indoor or Outdoor Use.

About The Artisan

When you visit Croix des Bouquets, the area of town known for Haitian metal art in the capital of Port-Au-Prince, you are met with a cacophony of tink, tink, tink as ball peen hammers strike sheets of steel.

The sheets are cut from steel drums colored by oil and other liquids the drums at one time held.

The process of turning sheets of metal into beautiful wall art is all done by hand, from cutting holes that become edges of trees and leaves, to accenting each lizard with a texture of scales, to painting or lacquering the final design.

The artists are proud of their work, signing the pieces on the back side, leaving a raised, reversed signature on the front.
