The Birds of Paradise Set of Three
These are one of a kind handmade pieces.
I started my working life as a zoologist, so it’s little wonder that I’m constantly drawn to the beauty of the animal kingdom. And on my travels throughout the world, one of the most striking and vivid images that I encountered was the unbelievably vibrant plumage and elaborate feathers of the Birds of Paradise.
For the most part, they are confined to dense rainforest habitat, so they’re a rare enough sight to the majority of us. But once seen, they can never be forgotten, and this three-part set is my homage to these magnificent denizens of the sky.
The set is a play on the quintessential orange, gold bronze, gold and vivid blue colours that typify the plumage and feather colouring of these exotic and elusive figures. The colourful birds are vivid in colour and come from a range of bird illustrators.
The flowers are the beautiful orange Birds Of Paradise flowers from South Africa, which intrigued me as its pointed flower parts are specifically adapted to be pollinated by birds. The bronze gold interiors are decorated with plumes, feathers, eggs and down of birds to complete the avian theme.
This set is for lovers of vivid colour and, of course, birds.
