Description

Is there anything as wonderful as a day at the beach? Laying on a beach towel in the soft sand, sun beaming on your face, listening to the waves crash against the coastline, smells of the salty sea in the breeze and watching the seagulls in flight, flocked together above the mighty ocean as the wind pushes against their wings…. Ahhhhh, BLISS! This fabulous wall sculpture can take you there every time you gaze upon its beauty!  It is actually three seagulls in flight comprised of two pieces by Syroco gilded upon their special copyrighted plastic material. They would be beautiful in a sunroom or on any wall that needs a touch of majestic mid-century modern euphoria.

Syracuse Ornamental Company (Syroco) American manufacturing company was founded in 1890 and based in Syracuse, New York. Syroco was best known for molded wood-pulp interior decorations and gift and novelty items that resembled hand-carving. Later they integrated polymers into their molding process and then moved entirely into plastics production. Sales catalogues from the early 1900s through the 1920s offer hundreds of varieties of moldings, capitals, brackets, volutes, and reliefs of vases, garlands, cartouches, scrollwork, and other details in a variety of styles. Their copyrighted gilded plastic has become a newly sought-after collectible and if you are as intrigued by this company as we are there is a great article by Linda Kennett titled “SYROCO… the wonder plastic,” check it out! In 1965 the company was bought by Rexall Drug and Chemical Company (which soon changed its name to Dart Industries). Dart owned Tupperware, from which Syroco gained more knowledge of injection molding. Syroco was purchased by the Syratech Corporation of Boston in 1986 which expanded its patio furniture production. In 1995 Syratech sold Syroco to Marley PLC of Sevenoaks, England, and in 2004 Syroco was purchased by Vassallo Industries of Puerto Rico which closed the plant in 2007. -Syracuse University Libraries.

We are in LOVE with this fantastic flock of seagull’s wall sculpture by Syroco, and surely you must be too! Make it yours!!
