Rustic Auto Part Sculpture Wine Bottle Holder from Mexico, "Rustic Romance"
Young sweethearts sit on a bench in the park as they whisper pledges of love. They come to life as Armando Ramirez finds a new use for all kinds of discarded metal and auto parts. Framed in a heart of sheet metal, the two embrace with ardent arms of galvanized wire. With their trim spark plug bodies and nails as legs, they find romance in a rustic wine bottle holder. (Wine is not included.)
The artisan does not give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.

"Perfect for Valentines day"





So nice. This artisan is very talented. I thought it would be a great hint to have this around, sort of like mistletoe. I gave these statues to my husband. So I get to enjoy them as well. He also is very impressed with the creativity and talent.
Best Uses
- I have a wood candle holder in the ring

"Connected old and young in delight!"





Opened at a socially distanced outdoor birthday party for a teenager, the young biker it was given to and all the other generations passed it and the information about the artist around to smiles, laughter, oohs and aahs, bringing people from different generations and different countries together for a moment amidst the isolation everyone is feeling right now.
Best Uses
- Decorating a teenagers room!

"large ship"





My husband is very fond of this group of artists treasures, and really liked the ship. The large size is really appealing and unusual. Lots of details make it impressive.
