Pair of Metallic Autumn Tree Sculptures

This item consists of two decorative metallic sculptures, each depicting an autumnal tree. The primary materials appear to be various metals, likely steel or a similar alloy, due to their metallic sheen and structural integrity. Both sculptures feature a trunk and a sprawling canopy composed of numerous small, individually shaped metal leaves. The trunks are textured to mimic bark, exhibiting a dark, almost charcoal gray or very deep brown coloration. They are designed with a flared base, suggesting stability and a representation of roots. The canopies are hemispherical or umbrella-shaped, densely populated with small, cup-shaped or slightly curved metallic 'leaves' arranged in overlapping layers. These leaves are finished in autumnal colors, primarily shades of orange, golden yellow, and a lighter, muted tan. The color variation creates a dynamic, lifelike impression of fall foliage. The leaves appear to be individually attached, possibly welded or riveted, to an underlying dark frame that forms the structural support for the canopy. The craftsmanship indicates a handmade or artisan-crafted quality, with attention to detail in the texturing of the trunks and the placement of the leaves. There are no immediately visible condition issues such as significant wear, damage, or repairs, suggesting they are in good to very good condition. The metallic finish of the leaves appears to be a paint or enamel coating applied over the metal. Without specific maker's marks or signatures, the exact manufacturing details are unknown. Stylistically, they lean towards a contemporary or transitional design, suitable for modern home decor, likely from the late 20th to early 21st century. The varying sizes of the two pieces suggest they are intended to be displayed together as a set, with the larger one potentially serving as a focal point and the smaller one as a complementary element.
