Product Features: Type: Christmas Metal Table Decor Colours: Painted Materials: Upcycled Steel Metal Dimensions: Approx. 10 inches across and 8.5 inches tall. Care: Wipe with soft cloth. Storey Behind the Art: The process of turning sheets of metal into beautiful art is all done by hand. Artisans take discarded 50 gallon steel drums that were originally used to transport oil into the capital of Haiti and recreate. First, they burn the oil residue off the drums and then cut and flatten the steel. The intricate details are chiseled and hammered to create the magnificent, upcycled art. Crafted from recycled 55-gallon steel drums by village artisans in Haiti, this stunning nativity wall art is truly one-of-a-kind! Given the handmade nature of this product please allow for minor variations. As the metal is recovered from recycled oil drums and coloured through a burning process it will vary slightly in coloration. Typically the piece has a darkened steel patina. Each piece of art is coated with a layer of clear coat to help protect the metal.
