About the Item

Exceptional sculpture of a cubist bird, made from sheet metal, signed LW and L.Wiesell. Very decorative one of a kind piece with a stunning design and a great patina on the metal. The colours in the metal refect the surroundings and light. Some surfaces have a blue hue, some more red/brown and silver. It is an eye catcher and due to its size, has a great presence in a artisticly designed space. Great styling item for the more out of the box interior designer and collector. The piece is well made and looks interesting from each and any angle. It is in good, stable and sturdy condition. It was certainly made with skill and craftmanship. The sculpture is marked twice - LW and L. Wiesell. Unfortunately we have no further information about this maker.
