Steel Drum Decorative Tray

$68.00

Description

Crafted from recycled 55-gallon steel drums by village artisans in Haiti, these stunning trays are 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 and functional, upcycled art. 

Approx. 16 inches by 10 inches

Given the handmade nature of this product please allow for minor variations. As the metal is recovered from recycled oil drums and colored 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 clear coat to help protect the metal.
