Description :

A dynamic grouping of handcrafted metal stems featuring abstract floral forms and small figurative sculptures. Each piece is individually forged and flame-shaped, combining curling petals, twisted ribbons, and stylized humanoid figures—some with horns or hats—in a striking Brutalist arrangement.

Design & Material:
Mixed-metal composition including brass-toned and iron elements, exhibiting natural oxidation, patina, and heat coloration. The sculpted textures and torch-cut detailing highlight the raw, expressive quality typical of mid-century handmade metal art.

Dimensions:
Approx. 11"–14" tall each stem.

Style Notes:
Reminiscent of mid-20th-century Brutalist and Modernist metalwork, these pieces blend industrial strength with organic form. Ideal as a sculptural bouquet, art installation, or accent in a modern interior.

Collecting Note:
This form of studio metal art emerged in the 1960s–70s, celebrating the natural beauty of raw metal and the individuality of the artist’s hand. Each stem stands as a small sculpture on its own yet collectively creates a dramatic visual composition.
