About Flower Stem Metal Wall Art
Sixty-six centimetres on the long side, thirty on the short. That narrow footprint is the point: hallway pilasters, the strip of wall between a dining room window and the corner, the return beside a study desk. Most framed work will not fit those places. The motif is a single blossoming stem in formed metal, finished in a multicoloured artisan coating that separates the petals from the foliage.
It hangs either way, and the two orientations do different jobs. Upright, the stem reads as upward growth and suits a narrow wall column, an entry pilaster or the space flanking a mirror. Turned on its side, the branch line runs horizontally and sits better above a headboard, a sideboard or a media console.
The rear eye brackets are the detail worth understanding. They hold the metal framework away from the wall rather than flat against it, so a downlight or window daylight passes behind the petals and stem and lays defined shadows onto the plaster. The relief shifts through the day as the light moves. Other botanical pieces sit alongside it in the wall art collection.
One piece of advice from the showroom floor: hang it where light arrives from one side or from above, because flat, even lighting wastes the stand-off. The wall art range is on display at Malaga if you want to judge the patina in person — contact us about a product or project to check what is on the floor or to arrange courier delivery across the Perth metropolitan area.
Can I hang this on its side?
Yes. The rear mounting eye brackets are set up for secure hanging either vertically or horizontally, so you can match the artwork to the proportions of the wall you are working with rather than the other way round.
How much wall space does it take up?
Approximately 66 cm long by 30 cm wide (66 x 30). Compact enough for a tight interior wall without crowding the furnishings either side of it.
Why does the artwork sit off the wall instead of flat against it?
The eye brackets hold the metal sculpture clear of the mounting surface. Ambient light reaches the gap and casts shadows behind the branches and petals, which gives the piece genuine three-dimensional depth on the wall.
What is it made from?
Shaped metal, durable enough to hold its form, carrying an artisan multicoloured coating that picks out the individual flower petals and the foliage along the stem.
Fixing it up and keeping the finish right — what is involved?
Mount it on standard wall screws with anchors suited to your substrate. Upkeep is mostly dusting: the coating sits on formed contours, and dust gathers in the petal folds and along the stem, so a soft dry microfibre cloth or a feather duster worked into the shapes is all it needs. Keep water off the coated surface, and keep chemical sprays and abrasive pads away from it entirely — both will dull the multicoloured finish.
