Industrial Mesh Bloom – Reclaimed Metal Sculpture

Woven mesh & clustered steel slugs. ⚙️

I packed the center of this flower head with thick steel punch-outs, rimming the dish with rough, beaded weld dots that catch the light. Stiff woven wire mesh wraps around the stem like a textured leaf, while a small trail of extra slugs creeps up right from the heavy triangular base.

At a solid pound, it’s compact, heavy, and full of raw tactile detail—from deep rust to dark oxidized steel.
