Product Description
Authentic Haitian Metal Art — Handcrafted Fair Trade Panel by Hubert Bernard
Celebrate art, culture, and sustainability with this large handcrafted metal wall panel made from a recycled 55-gallon steel barrel in Haiti. Created about 20 years ago by renowned Haitian artist Hubert Bernard, this piece showcases a stunning bird and sunflower design — an enduring symbol of hope, renewal, and beauty.
Each sculpture is cut and shaped entirely by hand, using only chisels, hammers, and imagination. The steel is reclaimed, flattened, and transformed into intricate art, continuing Haiti’s proud tradition of turning repurposed materials into works of beauty.
This panel measures 17 inches wide by 72 inches tall — the full circumference of a steel barrel when split open — creating a tall, elegant format ideal for framing a doorway, window, or garden entry.
We have two matching panels available — perfect as a symmetrical pair.
