About the Item

There’s trench art, and then there’s toilet humor - this is a little bit of both! Creative & fun sculpture composed of a copper toilet float, mounted on a small piece of hard driftwood. Float has a great aged patina. A bit kinetic - will sway. This submarine is for sure one that your guests have never seen before! Photographed with an Eames chair for scale.
