This fun “Petite Sexy Carrot” copper-foiled stained glass plant-stake was handmade by Tamara Goldsmith in her Portland, OR studio. These adorable additions to any plant are the perfect size for gift-giving and come in a wide array of colors.  Soldered to a 6” brass rod, these ingenious plant stakes are meant to slide into the soil of any potted houseplant … to add some visual flair to one's decor. The solder lines and lead came frame on this piece have been given a black patina, and are waxed for a protective, shiny surface.
Measures about 12-14” long, 2.5-3” wide.
60/40 lead/tin solder was used and the border is lead came. Lead is not dangerous to have in your home in an art-piece like this unless sanded or causing lead-dust to be airborne and inhaled or somehow ingested. However, it is always a good idea to wash your hands well after cleaning or handling the piece. Lead does not touch the plant or soil so it's completely safe.
