Imperfection Blooms – Reclaimed Metal Flower

Imperfection Blooms.

A stem tossed aside for its bent shape. A heavy chunk of scrap steel with nowhere to go. A vintage scrollwork candleholder stripped of its original life.

Instead of ending up in the trash, they met the welding torch. The bend stayed. So did the exposed welds and weathered patina. Imperfection bloomed.
