A toucan perched alertly on a weathered copper branch, its body finished in gold with subtle striations suggesting feather texture, beak and talons in a richer gilded tone. The contrast between the bird's polish and the branch's matte, aged patina is the compositional idea holding the whole piece together. Its scale makes it ideal as a desk centerpiece or side-table accent. It weighs 6.5 kilograms, giving it real heft beyond what the photographs suggest. Handcrafted by D'Argenta in Mexico. Curated by Venustare. Signed, with Certificate of Authenticity.
