Metal Outlet Light Covers, Swimming, Fish, Haiti, Handmade From Recycle Oil Drum
Metal Outlet Light Covers, Swimming, Fish, Haiti, Handmade From Recycle Oil Drum
Product Features
- Fair Trade
- This piece is hand cut from recycled 50 gallon steel drums. Both ends of the drum are removed and placed inside of the remaining cylinder along with scrap paper, dried banana or sugar cane leaves. It is set on fire, to burn off any paint or residue. When cooled, the drum is cut down the side and flattened out to create a “metal canvas” of approximately 3′ x 6′, upon which the design is drawn. Using hammer, chisel and various primitive tools, the shape is cut and the various decorative patterns are pounded into the metal, creating a unique and treasured piece of primitive art. The finished design is coated with a protective finish. Can be hung indoors or outdoors.
Product Description
A clever design to make a ho-hum outlet cover a little more lively and fun! Made from recycled metal, each piece is individually crafted by an artist who benefits directly from the practices of fair trade.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful  Fabulous and serves a good cause, By Skyhawk (Oakland, CA USA) - See all my reviews Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Metal Outlet Light Covers, Swimming, Fish, Haiti, Handmade From Recycle Oil Drum (Kitchen) I was just looking to replace the old corroded metal outlet cover in my bathroom. I was shocked at how much it cost to get something a little nicer that would not corrode. Then I stumbled onto this. These outlet covers and switch plates are truly beautiful! They are hand-worked pieces of art. To top off how lovely this outlet cover is, by buying it I am supporting a community that desperately needs the money and the earth by recycling the oil drum it came from. What could beat that? 0 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful You'll love the uniqueness of these! LOVE this product!, By Debbers98569 "Now livin' on the beach in WA s...
