Haitian Metal Folk Art Cross with 3-D Heart, 14" X 19" A lovely hand-crafted cross, it's primitive, simple design is similar to those of milagro crosses from Latin America. Milagros are commonly offered in prayerful supplication by worshipers who hope to gain intercession from the saints for help and healing. When it is shipped, the heart in the center of the cross will be pushed flat. Don't be afraid to bend it out a little bit to take advantage of its dimensionality. This metal sculpture is meant for display indoors or out, but if you choose to display yours outside, be aware that the protective, weather-proof coating will wear off over time. To keep your sculpture looking just like it did the day you bought it, take five minutes once a year to apply a spray-on clear enamel coating. Our artists prosper because of their own hard work, your purchases, and our practice of fair trade. It's Cactus Metal Art Haiti
