Retail Price: $ 34.95

I began working in Haiti over 19 years ago with the goal of fighting poverty through art. During that time, we have worked with as many as 120 artists, cultivating business relationships, and building friendships. We have learned the good that comes from Fair Trade. Because of our firm belief in Fair Trade and its practice, every sale we make of metal art makes a positive impact on the artist who produces it. Those benefits flow through the whole workshop and create prosperity for their own family, workers and apprentices, and ultimately, the entire village. We are proud to be a part of that and we hope that as you admire your new piece of handcrafted, recycled folk art you will feel a bit of that pride as well. Casey Riddell

How your art was made!

Firing, sanding, pounding, chiseling, cutting and shaping are what Haitian artist fashion of each beautiful piece. It is a tradition well established in the village of Croix-des-Bouquets, as fathers have taught neighbor for four generations.

Starting with a cast off 55 gallon steel drum, the metal is cleaned, sanded, and pounded flat. From there, the artist chalks his design onto the metal. Then he begins the heavy, tedious work of cutting out the pattern with a hammer and chisel, which will give the piece detail and dimension. Finally, the artist applies a clear coat to the piece, which protects it and make it perfectly suited for indoor or outdoor display.
