For Sale: Large Hand-Forged Steel Fish:
Unique Patina, Modern Industrial Art
Stunning, one-of-a-kind mild steel fish sculpture — this bold, sculptural piece captures dynamic motion and organic form in industrial material. The fish appears to be leaping or gliding, with finely worked fins and body contours that catch ambient light and add visual interest from every angle. The surface carries a subtle hammered or textured finish, and a rich patina of metallic rose-/bronze-tones transitioning to cool steel greys gives it an elegant yet rugged aesthetic.
Ideal as a statement piece for a modern home, upscale office, boutique hotel lobby, or gallery space — this sculpture evokes both aquatic serenity and sculptural presence. Display it on a plinth or as a freestanding form in a large open space for maximum impact.

• Finish: Unique patina and coloration achieved by artisan finishing (no two alike)
