Pink Dog Tooth - Copper Flower Sculpture

The Pink Dog Tooth is a hand-painted copper flower sculpture that captures the swept-back, star-like form of this woodland bloom, six narrow petals shading from white to deep pink at the tips. Each petal is carefully shaped and painted by hand in the Milan atelier of Elisabetta and Carolina Sonzini, where traditional craftsmanship is expressed through a refined botanical lens.

Created using tôle peinte, an 18th-century French technique of painting on metal, the piece reveals subtle depth and tonal variation through its hand-applied finish. Deep maroon inner petals and fine yellow stamens sit at the centre, while two broad leaves below are marked with the mottled, spotted pattern distinctive to this variety.

Mounted on a simple black wooden base, the Pink Dog Tooth is designed as a sculptural object - bringing colour and pattern to a console, mantel, or interior setting. A lasting bloom, it reflects a thoughtful approach to material and craftsmanship.
