About Pine Cone 24-082

Sculptor Floyd Elzinga favours using iconic Canadian imagery in his unique contemporary metalwork. The pinecone has become one of his signature forms valued for its superb detail. Hand forged from corten steel; this small tabletop sculpture has a refined and reflective silver finish.
