This Haitian Bale of Turtles Recycled Steel Drum Wall Art is great for indoor or outdoor use. It features a bunch of sea turtles gliding through tropical waters. The texture of the sculpture mimics a real turtle's skin and shell pattern. It is made from a recycled steel oil drum, which is flattened and then cut out with a mallet and chisel. If used outside the sculpture will eventually turn into a beautiful patina. However, if you prefer the original finish you can spray it every 18-24 months with a clear gloss varnish which can be found at any art or hardware store.
- Haitian art form that began in the late 50's
- Design/pattern is chalked out on a flattened, recycled steel oil drum and then cut out with a mallet and chisel
- Indoor/Outdoor use (to prevent natural patina spray with a clear gloss varnish every 18 to 24 months)
- This piece is uniquely hand crafted by a Haitian steel drum artist and will vary slightly from the picture above.
