It’s time to talk “ethical” and what that means to me! Ethics are personal moral principles, so labelling your oddities as “ethical” doesn’t mean anything unless you specify what that entails.
.
How do you source your materials?
The materials I use in my work are either found by myself or sourced from trusted sellers. They are most commonly foraged remains; found in nature or the result of road traffic accidents, with a few pieces being from animals who lived their whole lives in human care and passed of natural causes.
If you want to know the specific sourcing on a piece, please ask!
.
What won’t you use in your work?
Many artists will use remains sourced from pest control or meat/fur industry byproducts, as they have not been killed solely for the purpose of art and are still considered ethical/sustainable, which is what works for them. However, this is not something that aligns with my personal ethics, so I do not use bones from these sources.
.
What about commissions?
If you already own something I wouldn’t normally have sourced myself and you want me to gild it for you, I am happy to do so as it is already in your possession!
I will not go out of my way to obtain anything specifically for a commission if it isn’t from my regular sourcing, even if you have told me you are okay with it, as I am not comfortable doing so. If you want to do the labour of searching and sourcing something for me to work on, you can put in the time to do so and complete that transaction yourself before sending it to me to work on.
.
It is important to be transparent about sourcing within the oddity community, as different peoples ethics mean different things, so I hope this was insightful for anyone wondering where I get my materials from!
If you have any further questions please leave a comment below!
Thank you!

Buy now, pay later options are always available on my website! I know we could all use a little help spreading out payments for a treat sometimes.

✨Afterpay allows you to split the cost into 4 payments with 2 weeks between instalments
✨Klarna allows you to split the cost into 3 payments with 30 days between each instalment

✨Commissions are always split into a 50% deposit and 50% on completion too, to spread out costs! This can be split into more payments if desired to work with your budget.

I often get people asking for rat bone pieces, so many of you have a soft spot for them! These two frames are made using foraged remains from a young rat 🐀 Both available now!

ALMOST didn’t get any clips of this beauty before they went to their forever home, but thankfully remembered to take some pics and videos, before hand delivering!

A reminder to make the most of the last warmth of autumn and get outside as much as you can! With days getting shorter and colder, we need to get as much nature in our veins as possible, before hibernation. My recommendation is to find the nearest Neolithic tomb or stone circle and explore: had such a beautiful time visiting Long Meg and her Daughters this weekend 🖤

One absolutely gorgeous commission sent off last week! The brief was red crystal (we chose a garnet) with a puppy canine 🥹 This lovely client sent me the other puppy teeth they’d gathered for me to use so also included a little extra as a thank you! Always taking donations!

Hopping on a trend but not showing you my usual work 😎 Spent a couple days at my parents locked away in my mum’s little pottery studio again! Very happy with how all these strange little pots are shaping up!
