Some ‘Specials’ are one-of-a-kind experiments with novel materials and finishes. Each is painstakingly hand carved with precision, proceeding through many stages before the finished artwork is approved by the artist, wrapped in a soft cotton bag and dispatched in a custom wooden case.

Some feature semi-precious stones, rare minerals, pearls, ceramic flowers, ball magnets, and other internationally sourced materials. Some are decorated with handcarved tattoos, others with coiled copper wire, interlaced with precious beads and woven toroids.

Recent models have been finished using many new materials including magnetite, neodymium magnetic balls, mother of pearl and various semi-precious stones.
