Details:
- Materials: Rusted Steel
- Dimensions: Approximately 14" x 14"
- Hidden saw tooth bracket adhered on backside makes mounting easy
- A finishing touch: stainless steel pins are added to the frame. This holds the piece away from the wall, creating interesting visual depth as well as adding some protection to wall.
TIP: Finished in a natural rust patina, it needs little special care. However, rust is a dynamic finish. If temperature/humidity fluctuates it can flake a bit. This does not mean it is falling apart, but it can get messy indoors. To reduce shedding, spray on a couple of light coats of clear lacquer such as Rustoleum to seal it, without adding high gloss.
