Fair Trade Haitian Metal Flaming Heart Wall Art – Handmade

This striking 8" x 8" Haitian metal flaming heart is more than beautiful wall décor—it represents the skill and creativity of the Haitian artisans who make each piece entirely by hand.
The open heart is surrounded by dramatic, flowing rays and embellished with hundreds of individually hammered details. Starting with a recycled steel oil drum, the artisan cuts the design by hand, then carefully hammers, chisels, and embosses the metal to create its distinctive texture and dimension.
Fair Trade is an important part of the story behind this art. By purchasing Haitian metal art, you help provide ongoing, fairly paid work for artisans in Haiti, allowing them to support their families through their remarkable craftsmanship.
The open center makes this design especially striking against a colorful wall, wood, stone, or garden backdrop. It is a beautiful symbol of love, passion, strength, and hope and makes a meaningful wedding, anniversary, Valentine's Day, or housewarming gift.
