The Timekeeper of Hope

Measuring 21 cm x 13 cm (or 24 with open wings), this articulated paper bird is inspired by this small and original story of fantastic ornithology:

“The Timekeeper of Hope is a magical and somewhat unfortunate owl, often found perched in the quietest corners of the forest. His wide eyes reflect the glow of distant stars, and his song is often mistaken for the melancholic creaking of the old trees. Unlike other owls, he is cursed with insomnia, unable to sleep through the long, silent nights.

Yet, amidst the paths of his restless mind, he finds small, precious crumbs of patience. These glimmering fragments grow among the cracks of winter, slowly shaping his hope. And as hours go by and the world around him sleeps, he watches over the night and guides others towards the pale dawn.”

Handcrafted with 300 gsm watercolor paper and tacks, this creature allows gentle movement and repositioning. While he’s designed to be flexible, I recommend keeping him framed most of the time to preserve his delicate nature.

The fine art paper we chose with María’s work in mind has a very fine texture, is silky soft and was selected for its consistency, its acid free & the natural high white colour works really well with María’s illustrations and pattern designs.”
