Delivery Estimate
Alone in his rowboat, a fisherman tries his luck. Crafted from an assortment of recycled metal, the image springs from the imagination of Armando Ramírez. Galvanized wire becomes the arms, legs and fishing pole, and a spark plug forms the body.
Ramírez does not give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.

"For good luck"
I sent this to my cousin in Colombia; he lives alone but works for the desplazados because of the violence and war. Before the pandemic he would travel to the Magdalena river and would take the most amazing pictures. I hope this inspires him and gives him validation for the what he does.

"unique w character"
There is really nothing like this piece of art. I thought it would be much thinner, but it was quite heavy and substantial. Nice quality

"Bought for a very special man"
I purchased this as a Valentines gift for my very special friend Barry. He is an avid fisherman who lives in Alaska so there is no shortage of fish stories! I was so excited to gift this to such an amazing kind man. Im getting him the bulldozer next as he is a dozer hand in his profession.

"She love it"
Luckily, I found this beauty surfing the web looking for a gift for my wife for our 6-year anniversary. THIS SCULPTURE IS PERFECT since I work in a metal recycling company and our first outings were to parks.

"great gift"
This is a great gift for someone who works a lot with a computer. It is well made and fun. My one complaint is that it is described as a male executive. It should be unisex.
