Metal sculpture of a cormorant, a native seabird in Lofoten. The bird is sitting on a naturally rounded stone, looking upwards with its peek towards the sky. The sculpture has a brass shine, by brushing brass ontot the hot surface.

The form is an alternative to the well-known king cormorant sculpture, that is a "signiture" product from the Blacksmith in Sund, and is one of the oldest hand crafted memorabilia still in producation from Lofoten.

That version is very like the famous cormorant sculpture, King Olav V. recieved in 1963 from the previous blachsmiht of Sund.
