This 1960s metal helicopter model is a collectible decorative piece crafted entirely from thin, welded metal rods. The predominant color is a warm, dark bronze with subtle grey undertones, accented by a natural patina and areas of oxidation that give the surface a matte, gently weathered appearance. Its design is openwork, featuring a rounded cockpit, elongated tail boom, and carefully rendered landing skids and dual rotors. The absence of solid panels emphasizes a minimalist, skeletal aesthetic typical of mid-century modern style. Visible weld points and slight irregularities in the bent rods attest to hand-crafted techniques, while the open structure highlights the artisanal approach and attention to detail. The model is in good condition, displaying small spots of rust, local discoloration, and light signs of wear—yet it shows no major damage or missing components.
