About the COA & authenticity

Certificate, engraved serial, wax seal, dedicated case — everything that upholds a one-of-a-kind work, delivered alongside it.
Images shown are illustrative. Photography of the actual COA and case is in preparation — details on inquiry.
CHECK is a one-of-a-kind piece from the POP series. The check is measured play, born where vertical meets horizontal. Taking the hard, lacquered shell as a single pop canvas, an even lattice is laid across the back of one of the longest-growing beetles on earth — orderly, yet lifted into lightness by the choice of colour.
To hold play within order. It is where opposites live together that a certain wit resides. That balance — measured and yet joyful — is held in a beetle that has lived out its full span. Precise, but never stiff: a piece to keep beside your everyday.
We never kill for art. We use only beetles that were farm-raised and lived out their natural span. Honoured, they are given a second life as art — carrying the culture of Hercules to the next generation.
Prices and shipping do not include import VAT, customs duties, or clearance fees charged by your destination country. As the importer, you are responsible for these charges, which your carrier or customs office will collect before delivery.
For fine-art pieces, most countries charge little or no customs duty (for specimen-based decorative art this is not yet settled) but do apply import VAT (e.g. UK 5%, France 5.5%, Italy 5%, Germany 7%). We will send you an estimated landed cost for your country before we ship — your order proceeds only after you confirm. Refusing delivery does not waive these charges. Questions?
