Product Description

A cross on the wall can be an every day inspiration as well as a beautiful wall accent. This striking piece has a heart highlight in the center, making it a wonderful addition to your decor.   

Haiti is in crisis right now. They've never truly recovered from the earthquake in 2010. Multiple disease outbreaks and severe government instability have thrust them into a dire situation. As the government falters, they've put their dependence on gangs to establish a rule of order. Those gangs have taken this "authority" and have created a new normal. They're overtaking neighborhoods, evicting people from their homes, stealing their possessions, raping women, and abducting children into the gang life. Our metal work is made by artisans trying to maintain some level of stability in this time of anything but. Steel drums and their lids are cut with tin snips, then hand pounded to give each piece a little dimension. 

  • Made by hand in Haiti
  • Recycled steel drum
  • One cross wall hanging
  • Measures approximately 5-3/4" wide x 7-1/4" tall
  • Due to the nature of steel drum, some discoloration and age marks may be present and only add to the individuality of your art
