Why metal flowers?
One day in May 2015 I made made wrought copper tulip for my wife. She liked it so much, that the single tulip became a series of wrought metal flowers. Some from iron, others of copper, some tinned, others patinated or cut-through for a lacelike effect. Than I started playing with shapes, different methods of welding and blacksmith technics, cutting and patinating chemicals, varnishing. After the first several tulips I made some poppies.
Everything is handmade, but I use not only the classical instruments, but also welding machines and plasma cutter.
We decided to to share these tender and beautiful, yet unexpectedly rough flowers with you. They will never wither and die, but will bring you an air of antiquity and eternity.
My metal flowers could be an unique gift, or arranged in your home, on your patio or yard. They look equally good as singles or in a bouquet, laying on a table/mantle or in a vase/bottle. Some of the flowers are/could be set in stone, piece of wood or brick by drilling a small hole for the stem.
Tulips, poppies, doesn't matter what the flower is, could even be used for self defence - they are so solidly made! :)
All flowers have matte acrylic varnish, that is unnoticeable and delicate.
The poppies are three blooms on a stem like a bouquet, and usually are taller than the tulips. They vary between 33cm(13in) and 45cm(17,7in).


*Be careful! Although I do my best to smooth all the edges, there is still some roughness, it's tin and wire, after all.
*Keep in mind, that in spite of the acryllic varnish, the edges of the iron flowers are still able to rust. This is not a defect, but an Effect! Depending on the place you keep them, and the athmospheric conditions your flower could rust more or less. The more moisture - the more rust.
