Behind this product

Made by
Metal artists, Haiti
Made in
Haiti
Material
Recycled Metal
Artist Profile- Michel Brutal
The opening is 7 1/4" x 7 3/4"
I would suggest having glass or mirror cut 8 1/2" x 8 1/2" for a nice fit~
There are small tabs that bend over the glass to keep it secure in the frame.

Michel Brutal, son of Cecile Casseus and Saint-Clearly Brutal, is the eldest in a family of ten children. He blesses the work that enables him to send his two younger brothers and his own daughter to school. Though he seems to carry his burdens with joy, he says frankly, “This trade is very important for me. My family was completely poor and is thanks to this trade that I manage to support on my shoulders the loads of my family in general.”
