Rustic buying Hand Painted Metal Agave Arizona Landscape Desert Cactus Metal Yard Art

SPECIAL PRICE!
A delightful metal agave, the ideal southwestern landscape piece of yard art that requires no watering or trimming and won't be eaten by critters or wild animals. Looks great in a planter or on its own and can bring a splash of rustic blues to your yard for year round color. Please scroll through the reviews to see photos of all the beautiful ways my customers have displayed their agaves.

Handcrafted in Mexico, this metal agave features a realistic center with the beginning of a leaf unraveling and each leaf features a beaded edge mimicking the spiny thorns found on a live desert agave. Made with rustic metal, small patches of rusting and dark flashing are to be expected. I have hand painted the exterior of the leaves with random and rustic strokes of iced turquoise for a unique and rustic look. The bare metal on inside of the leaves and the unpainted sections of the exterior of the leaves have patches of rusting and will continue to rust to a deeper brown when left unsealed and exposed to the elements or high humidity, the last photo shows one that is in mid transformation. The iced turquoise will take on a bit of greenish hue as it rusts, applying a clear coat protectant will prevent further rusting and will maintain the bluish color when placed in direct sun. You may seal the buying exterior of the leaves to prevent sun fading and allow the interior of the leaves to naturally rust as well. Or leave as is and allow this funky agave to become even more rustic as it ages.

Each agave is handcrafted and hand painted, they are rustic metal plants that will feature bends and creases in the leaves. Please expect a rustic agave with rough or uneven welds and cuts. The rigid leaves may get crumpled in transit and may be pulled back into position if they get pushed in but are otherwise not adjustable. Some feature a more ‘full' appearance with the leaves extended wider and some are more ‘slender' with a more compact look. Please send a message or include a note with your order if you have a preference of full vs slender. Feel free to send a message if you'd like to see a photo of the exact agave that I will ship to you.

These are rustic, handcrafted metal agaves, please expect a rustic piece of yard art and that may include rough or uneven welds and leaves with bends or scuffs with rustic and random paint strokes and may have paint drips on the base or inside the leaves.

FREE SHIPPING via FedEx for quick delivery that includes tracking and insurance.

I usually have a few in stock and will try to ship the same day but if not, I may need to paint them when an order comes in, so please allow a couple of days before they are shipped. Because the strokes and color saturation can vary, if I receive an order for multiple agaves, I will paint all of them at the same time so they will all look similar.
