This nature composition is a mosaic of the natural world, featuring tiny bones, moth wings, lizard fragments, bird skulls, insect parts, bird feet, and a flattened snake. Arranged on a triple-layered red velvet background and encased in a handmade wooden box frame under glass, the work shows how elements that might be overlooked—or even seen as “ew”—become accessible and compelling when carefully composed. Bones or a squashed snake that might go unnoticed on the forest floor are transformed into objects of fascination, inviting close observation. The piece explores themes of mortality, transformation, and the intricate patterns of life. It encourages viewers to contemplate the beauty, complexity, and resilience of the natural world.

Ethical Origins

At the heart of our craftsmanship is a commitment to ethical sourcing. We use materials that are responsibly gathered, often from natural occurrences such as roadkill, ensuring that no life is taken specifically for our art. This approach not only honors the natural cycle but also imbues our creations with a profound symbolic meaning: celebrating the beauty that endures even after life’s end.

Care

Its recommended that art pieces be displayed out of direct sunlight to maintain the specimens’ vibrant detail.

All our electroformed jewelry are made from 100% pure copper. To keep the copper looking as beautiful as possible, you can let it naturally patina, which happens over time, or you can polish your jewelry to keep it shiny. Remove copper jewelry before bathing and swimming.
