"Ocean Bounty" | Hand-Forged 17-Element Wall Sculpture.
The symbolism of the sand dollar has evolved over time. The five-pointed star, easily reminiscent of the stars in the sky, has led some to associate them with celestial bodies, representing guidance and wonder. The fact that they're often found whole and intact after the creature has passed might symbolize resilience and the enduring nature of life, even after death. The smooth, circular shape, like a coin, has also connected them to prosperity and good fortune in some cultures. Perhaps, most powerfully, the sand dollar embodies the mysteries of the ocean, a reminder of the hidden world beneath the waves and the interconnectedness of all living things.
A striking medley of shapes, this 17 element wall sculpture contrasts flowing lines of metal with disks representing sand dollars in vibrant copper hues. The disks are forged and patinated steel adding wonderful texture and detail.
Dimensions: 32″ L, 22″ W, 2″ D
Being hand crafted, each piece is unique and will vary slightly from the photo.
Custom sizes and configurations are also available by request to perfectly fit your design vision. This piece is also available in a painted gold leaf finish at no extra charge.
Material Duality: These notes highlight the "Master Craftsman" technique of patinating heavy-duty steel to achieve vibrant, warm copper hues. This provides the industrial strength of steel with the radiant, high-end aesthetic of precious metals.
Versatile Orientation: While the 32" length creates a beautiful horizontal flow above a console or headboard, the "Ocean Bounty" composition is balanced enough to be mounted at a slight diagonal to emphasize the "mysteries of the ocean" and dynamic movement.
The Gilded Alternative: For "New Gilded Age" or "Warm Minimalist" interiors, consider the optional gold-leaf finish. The hand-applied gold leaf will catch ambient light more aggressively than the copper patina, making it an ideal choice for rooms with lower natural light.
Rhythmic Shadowing: Position the piece 2" from the wall to allow the flowing metal lines to cast a secondary "echo" shadow. This doubles the visual footprint of the sculpture and reinforces the "interconnectedness" of the 17 individual elements.
