AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A bronze patinated hammerhead shark on a stand is a stunning artwork that captures the power and speed of these underwater predators. The sculpture displays the shark's distinctive hammer-shaped head and is mounted securely on a sturdy stand. It is a timeless piece that is artistically and educationally valuable, and can make a great addition to any art collection or as a decorative piece in an office or living room.

Well aware of the direct impact of mankind on the environment they create respectful alternatives to the authentic vulnerable species, such as sharks. Just as enchanting but less of an impact.

Approximate Dimensions (Measurement include the stand)
Length: 12 cm / 4.7 inches
Width: 33 cm / 13 inches
Height: 23 cm / 9.1 inches

Please note that the patination of bronze is a natural process, and the actual patina may vary from the photo.

The sculpture is made of bronze.

Designed by Jake Richmond.


Sustainability
Our bronze sculptures are made from upcycled metals such as old pipelines. Our craftsmen and women collect this scrap waste which they then put in an oven at very high temperatures. Once the scrap waste pieces melt, the new raw material is ready to be used. We then use this virgin material to make our bronze sculptures. As bronze is a very eco and labour intensive material to mine, we feel it makes much more sense to reuse the material that has already been created than to extract it –again. By doing so we are trying to close at least one waste cycle.


Transparency & Who Made It
Lastly, when it comes to our working conditions, we work exclusively with Indonesian craftsmen and women in both Bali and Java. This piece specifically was made in Java, Indonesia. All of our craftsmen and women get paid a living wage that exceeds what Indonesian Law requires. Their income is enough for a comfortable home, food, education, ceremonies, and more.
