Avarice

£3,495.00

A haunting 1-meter fable of power, survival, and the high price of beauty—adorned with 23.5ct gold leaf and Swarovski crystals.

Standing at a commanding 100cm wide, Avarice is a dark fairytale rendered in extraordinary 3D detail. Rising from a bed of gilded pebbles, a hand-sculpted, heavily textured trunk erupts into a sprawling canopy of sunflowers, velvety peonies, and metallic filigree spirals that spill forward from the shadowbox. Running down the background canvas are dramatic drips of genuine 23.5-carat gold leaf, creating a backdrop of melting, untouchable wealth.

Roosting in the dark branches sits a council of wise, silent owls—their eyes piercingly set with genuine Swarovski crystals that glint coldly in the light. At the base of the trunk, prey meets predator: a vulnerable solitary mouse stands on the gold pebbles, holding up a single rose stem as an offering to the owls above—a desperate bargain offering beauty in exchange for its life. Marked by the brass "AVARICE" plaque, this 1-of-1 masterwork asks a lingering question: When greed governs wisdom, how much must the small give just to survive?
