The Smallest Gent. Paper-cut Bee Hummingbird Sculpture. 1:1 Scale

£100.00
The Bee Hummingbird is the smallest living bird on Earth.

During mating season the male grows his 'breeding plumage'; bright red, iridescent feathers around his head and neck in order to attract a mate.

Once the season is over he sheds his breeding plumage, returning to an iridescent blue/green colouring.

This 1:1 scale paper sculpture shows a male in breeding plumage.

I have cut and sculpted the bird by hand and painted the card with iridescent acrylic paint, he is mounted on brass wire and encased inside a glass bell jar with a hand stained wooden base.

The piece measures 12cm in diameter (base) 11cm in diameter (glass) and is 17cm tall.
Cruelty free taxidermy.
Not suitable for children.
