This flower is approximately 12 inches at its widest point.

Bloom Again Metal Art flowers are created by embracing the practice of Wabi-Sabi - the Japanese art of finding beauty in imperfection. Using salvaged and reclaimed metal, each flower is one-of-a-kind and individually handmade by the artist, Richard Arfsten ... that's me!

These metal flowers look great in any outdoor space any time of the year. Mingle them in your garden to add a touch of color when the real flowers are done blooming; add to a planter as the center of attraction; or hang on a fence or deck rail to brighten your landscape. Used indoors they make fabulous wall hangings or display in a floor vase for a charming home decor accent.

The petals are coated with industrial-grade machinery paint. The center is glass. There are touches of rust which add to the flower's charm.

The finishes are intended for the outdoors. However, due to the nature of steel, eventually more rust may appear if the item is left outside for an extended time. You can delay any rust by applying a clear spray sealer annually. But honestly, the rust really adds to the beauty of the piece because you never know what Mother Nature is going to create - maybe more Wabi-Sabi!

The metal is reclaimed and upcycled from metal barn siding and steel paint barrels. The galvanized hardware and glass center are newly purchased. Bear in mind that the metals used are upcycled / salvaged / repurposed so they may be less than perfect - but that's part of their charm!

Every flower comes with a pre-attached shops wall hanger. A 30-inch steel rod stem (stake) is available for a slight additional fee. If you would like a stem, be sure to select that option when placing your order.

The specially engineered two-part 30-inch stem is designed to easily fit in the same box as the flower head to save on shipping costs. To assemble, simply twist together the two parts of the stem, then attach to the flower head via a connecting bolt on the flower and a receiving nut on the stem.

Disclaimer: due to the nature of computer monitors, the actual colors of the flower may be slightly different than what appears on your screen. The predominant colors of this flower are shades of red and white.
