The copper spheres have achieved an exceptional, deep patina, transitioning beautifully between oxidized teal-green verdigris and dark, weathered bronze. Though visually evocative of traditional European pawn broker signs, this piece’s grand scale and striking material quality allow it to transition seamlessly into contemporary architectural salvage or powerful sculptural art, perfect for defining a unique entryway or gallery space.

Designed to be a spectacular focal point, the sign is incredibly dramatic due to its size and weighty presence. It measures 53 inches wide, 17 inches deep, and 56 inches tall. This magnificent piece is in sturdy vintage condition; the heavy patina, visible dents, and surface irregularities on the copper spheres are celebrated elements of its history, demonstrating decades of natural weathering and outdoor use. This historic and sculptural object offers a truly unique opportunity to own a piece of architectural drama. See less
