Description of Significance:

Wire art is a meticulous art form demanding immense patience and skill. The process involves individually stringing each bead onto wire, a technique that not only fosters beauty but also ensures the sculpture's stability.

These beaded wire sculptures are flexible, allowing you to shape the legs and neck according to your preferences. Crafted by artisans in South Africa, each giraffe is a fun piece, featuring thousands of vibrant and lustrous glass beads.

Whether you are a folk art collector or an admirer of intricate crafts, these South African beaded wire sculptures promise to be a dazzling addition to your collection, offering both visual appeal and a tactile, interactive experience.

About Decorative African Art:

Hemingway Gallery only purchases pieces from artists or owners that we approve of historically and aesthetically. These might include artworks that have been newly created and are currently being used in ceremonies. We place high value in these pieces, despite their lack of age and antiquity, regarding them as real even though they are not old. Some are created for use by the people and not made for the tourist trade. Ours are by talented artisans creating fine art that reference historic styles. Newly produced African art is gorgeous and we value these pieces. This includes contemporary aesthetics from the continent that may not necessarily look traditionally ‘African’. Our goal is to represent design in Africa that goes beyond the idea of ‘tribal’ as the styles of emerging artists are ever-evolving.

Our Pricing:

Our pricing correlates directly to the asking prices of artists, artisans and art dealers in the various African countries we collect from and the costs of importing their artwork to the U.S. We need to change the idea that artists should be paid pennies for their fine art just because it comes from Africa. Paying a fair price to our artists is our number one priority and our pricing reflects that. Everything is ethically sourced personally by the owners of our family business.
