Yes, it is a wonderful life, even when things are difficult. Crafted of heavy-gauge steel and made to order by artisans in the USA, our art of this sentiment will accommodate seasonal changes and is intended to rust. If used directly outdoors and a rusted look is not for you, coating with polyurethane at least twice a year is recommended. Either way, the message will inspire for many years. A metal indentation is provided on the back for hanging. Please note: Variations in the finish will occur due to the process of treating the steel.
