Salvage-Yard Centerpiece

RECLAIMED TOOL BOWL


This product is environmentally friendly. Click icon for more information. This product was made by hand. Click icon for more information. An industrial work of art, this reclaimed tool bowl features discarded screwdrivers, hammers, wrenches and whatever else artist Tammy Roy can get her hands on.

The discarded pieces are collected by the artist herself from various steel manufacturers before she arranges them and then welds them all together.

"I am literally inside of their dumpsters picking through and separating pieces that inspire me," Tammy says. "I never know what I'm going to come across, and as a result, I never know what it will ultimately transform into."

Perfectly pieced together, this salvage-yard centerpiece proves that beauty and inspiration can be found in the most surprising of places.

Only ground shipping to the contiguous 48 states is available - please allow 2-3 weeks for delivery.

HOLIDAY DELIVERY: Please place your order no later than 5PM EST December 13th for delivery by December 24th. Due to the special nature of this item, it is shipped directly from our artisan, who will make every effort to ensure timely delivery.

Comments about RECLAIMED TOOL BOWL:

I ordered this for a friend's birthday, and I am glad I had it shipped to me first. The one shown as an example is much more attractive than what I received. It not merely an issue of the items being arranged more attractively, it's the fact that the one I received is 60% "filler" (big metal circles), large open gaps, and few tools. I feel rather cheated. It was not worth [$].

UncommonGoods Response: Thanks for your feedback! We've forwarded your comments and photo to the artist who is making some changes to ensure the bowls are of the highest quality. Please contact us at 888-365-0056 so we can help you receive a replacement.

Comments about RECLAIMED TOOL BOWL:

These bowls are just amazing, I purchased one as a gift for friend. They loved the concept. I noticed it right away when I walked into their house, they had placed it as a centerpiece in their kitchen. They have a converted warehouse condo and it fit the decor perfectly.

Comments about RECLAIMED TOOL BOWL:

I was very excited about this item. I purchased it for a friend who is a mechanic and really into tools, etc. Unfortunately, the piece is extremely large and many of the scrap pieces were odd and not necesarily tools. I love the concept, but would prefer the size to be scaled back significantly. Obviously this is more a gift for a guy and it was over the top.
