Metal Owl Sculpture
« on: April 28, 2013, 07:10:00 pm »
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to find out what this metal owl sculpture is. Not sure what type of metals were used or when it was made but I'm hoping someone on here could help me out with it. It's approximately 8 inches by 6 inches and lightweight. I don't see any markings on this. Thank you in advance!

Looks like a bunch of spot-welds , with found & made items .

Maybe you can check out the pieces/areas of it with a magnet ?

Here in UK..Owl ornaments, etc, sell surprisingly well....maybe its because of the Wise Old Owl...story...
I make no excuses,and no apologies....but i like a good Malt,
