Full description

This classy looking bird is created from, and decorated with, amongst others, classic Vintage Oneida flatware designs.

Clever, innovative and creative use of flatware, this bespoke and elegant design is not just a highly decorative ornament but a talking point of intrigue and focus for any room.

Made as always from 100% reclaimed materials.

Approximate weight (boxed): 500 grams

Approximate size (each): 200mm x 140mm x 90mm

Material: Stainless Steel

3 Dessert Spoons, 1 Teaspoon, 1 Soup Spoon, 2 Forks,

2 Ball Bearings, 6 Patterned Handles, Scrap rod

Care and Maintenance

Stainless steel is a very durable material containing both nickel and chromium. This makes it highly resistant to tarnish as well as allowing for high levels of finish.

Whilst these beautiful birds should not rust, the natural skin moistures of general handling will reduce their lustre. The birds can be gently buffed with a soft cloth or to remove light abrasions polished with a suitable metal finishing product.

I recommend 'Autosol' metal polish although both 'Brasso' and 'Silvo' will work. Massage the polish into the surface by hand or using a suitable rotary tool. Buff to a brilliant shine with a clean dry lint free cloth.
