What Makes It Uncommon

keyboard_arrow_up

Small-but-mighty hummingbirds have garnered a devoted following due to their charming appearance, beautiful coloring, and uplifting symbolism (joy, resilience, luck, and perseverance). In an exclusive collaboration with Uncommon Goods, artist Chris Crooks designed a rustic hummingbird sculpture you can personalize with a family name or use to mark a special spot, like Mom’s Garden. Plus, you can track rainfall with the included glass gauge.

  • Each one is made of sturdy 16-gauge cold roll steel and includes a glass rain gauge.
  • Personalize with up to 18 characters, like a family name (The Andersons) or special spot (Grandma’s Garden).
  • Measures 30.5"L x 11"W.
  • Handmade in Arizona.

I started out from my garage. As the business grew, and my wife’s and neighbors' patience stretched, it was time to move to an industrial space. There I can bang and grind at all hours of the night. It's 1,000 square feet of pure metalworking nirvana.

Chris Crooks took a winding road to get to where he is now—creating imaginative lawn sculptures inspired by the Southwest landscape he calls home. After graduating from the Art Institute of Philadelphia, Chris worked in advertising, then ran a printing business with his wife, while painting during his free time. It was when the couple moved to Tucson that Chris collaborated with a metal art manufacturer and fell in love with the art form. He now designs and creates sculptures in his studio at the foot of the Santa Rita Mountains. "I always wanted to make a living doing something genuinely enjoyable," he says. "To get up in the morning raring to go, and never having enough time to do everything you want to do."
