Andy Accountant

When oxidation began eating through the cities, someone had to keep track of what was lost — which towers, which names, which streets of the metal world had gone to rust overnight. He took on that grim, necessary job, and he never stopped keeping the ledger, even after there was little left to count. He sits now the way he always sat, upright at a small desk, pen in hand, entirely unbothered by the grandeur around him. This handcrafted wire art piece is rendered in a warm copper-toned wire, seated in a composed posture beside a miniature banker's lamp and a pair of small dark canisters standing in for file boxes, all arranged on a little wood tray meant to sit atop a real desk or shelf. The scale is intentionally small and precise, built for close inspection rather than distance. Every joint was shaped and set by hand, which is part of what makes each AndyMan piece a genuine one-of-a-kind wire sculpture rather than a factory casting. For collectors of collectible wire figurine work, or for anyone who appreciates quiet, orderly characters, this handmade metal figurine brings a sense of calm focus to a home office or study, and makes a fittingly clever unique wire art gift for the numbers person in your life.
