Sunbird in Vintage Clock

A rearticulated sunbird skeleton nestled within a vintage alarm clock, surrounded by aged cogs and gears, evokes a poetic meditation on the fleeting nature of time and beauty. Once a vibrant creature of the skies, the sunbird now rests in mechanical stillness—a poignant contrast between organic life and rigid machinery. The piece explores the tension between freedom and confinement, reminding us of the delicate balance between nature and the constructs of time.

The Details That Matter

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.
