Coil Rib Snapper

Description

The Coil Rib Snapper reimagines discarded electronics and mechanical components as a bold, streamlined fish silhouette. Curving copper coils arch along the body like exposed ribs, while layered steel plates, gears, and reclaimed bearings lock together to form undulating “scales.” Hand-cut fins, finished in a subtle red-to-bronze gradient, fan out against the textured metal, evoking the snapper’s distinctive spines. Measuring approximately 28″ long by 8″ tall, it mounts flush to any wall on an integrated bracket—ideal for living rooms, studies, or gallery walls. Each element is hand-assembled and thoughtfully patinated, transforming obsolete hardware into a dynamic tribute to aquatic form and industrial ingenuity.
