Tin Animals

A magical menagerie—recycled tin animals, handcrafted and beautifully painted by the Mkankha brothers of Zimbabwe. Created from scrap metal and soda cans, these unique, playful art objects reflect the African wildlife that has inspired the artists since their childhood. Each piece of sustainable art evokes the symbolism of African folklore, whether you choose the loyal elephant, the curious giraffe, the solitary hippo, the courageous lion, or the elegant (if shy) ostrich.
