Speaking of Kinmen, beyond the associations with sorghum and knives, "landmines" represent a historical chapter that the world should be remembered.
On the island of Kinmen, Lieyu, there are 3 fortress; the Warrior’s Fortress occupies the most expansive area.
Accessed via a small bridge over a three-meter-deep trench and gradual slope, its camouflaged entrance with multiple checkpoints reflects the island's frontline tension. The two-level fortress has gun emplacements, command room, and sleeping quarters on the upper level.
The fortresses contains hundreds of meters of underground tunnels connecting major subterranean military facilities. These passages link to the “Tie Han Fortresses”, now a mine exhibition museum, allowing visitors to traverse and experience Kinmen's 20th-century wartime landscape.

♻️ Eco-Friendly & Sustainable ♻️
This product is crafted from aerospace metal offcuts left over from precision machining. These materials are not of inferior quality; rather, their small size makes them unsuitable for larger parts. Typically, such scraps are melted down for recycling, a process that is energy-intensive and not environmentally friendly.
At Metal Arts, we embrace sustainability by repurposing these high-quality metal remnants. By preserving the machining marks and holes, we transform what would have been scrap into unique, meaningful products. This approach not only reduces waste but also gives each piece a one-of-a-kind character and cultural value.
