The Parham Owl Etui

The owl is a needlework etui, with a 3D printed internal form and bronze legs. The head can be lifted to reveal space to hold a thimble and pin cushion. The chest is worked on linen canvas with silk and metal threads. The head is covered in needlelace using dyed cottons, and the face is shaded using silk gimps. The wings are worked using pleated ribbons, sequins and wool shading.
