CloseThe Studio Roof Cuprum Beetle 3D Object takes its name from the Latin word for copper, and it has the warm, collected feel of something found in an old curiosity cabinet. Inspired by the natural armor of beetles, it has a subtle metallic sheen that catches the light softly and brings a touch of nature indoors.
Some wall art shouts. This piece has a quieter glow. At about 6.5 inches long, it is large enough to notice and small enough to fit almost anywhere. It feels at home in an eclectic room, a study, or anywhere you like to mix old finds with new ones.
The kit ships flat with 11 pieces to pop out and assemble. Building it yourself gives the finished piece a little more meaning, whether you keep it or give it to someone who loves unusual things.
Studio Roof began in Amsterdam in 2005 and still makes its designs from recycled cardboard printed with vegetable inks. Its pieces are built to last a long time, and they can be recycled if you ever decide to part with them.
