Willow on White Base - wire tree sculpture, by Sal Villano
9«H X 8«w X 7«d - Created using 24 and 26 gauge steel wire. The wire is not galvanized so it will rust and change color and texture as it ages. The tree is bonded onto 4 irregular shaped pieces of green glass. All is mounted onto a piece of pure white marble. The elements of the piece are bound together using an adhesive mixed with sea sand and small pebbles then painted using India ink in yellows and greens to look like moss. #3-07 $175.00

Shipping information…
The way I ship my tree sculpture is by using a «box within a box». If the tree sculpture is 8» X 8» X 8», I wire the tree onto the inside bottom of a box that is a least 10» X 10» X 10». The tree sculpture is secured into the center on the bottom of this inner box so that none of the branches ever touch any of the sides or inside top of this box. The inner box is then sealed and put into another larger outer box and bubble wrap is placed around all sides, top and bottom of the box with the tree sculpture in it. I have been told by some of my customers that boxes have arrived upside down and battered however, due to the cushioning around all sides of the inner box, the sculpture arrives safe and sound. I have shipped thousands of tree sculptures of all sizes, as far away as Japan and Egypt, using the method and I have never had any problems or any sculpture returned or damaged. Insurance is included in shipping costs Thank you for your interest in my work.
