2009 is going to be the year of bold neon colours! The catwalks have seen an explosion of colour and that has spilled into gorgeous accessories for the home. The Neon birds are a brilliant example of this fun and invigorating fashion sensation. About Perry Perry Lancaster started his carving career in 1988, working in Cambridgeshire with John Fox, who had become well known for his wood carvings which were simple, elegant and exquisitely made. Perry now works from his home in the Dordogne region of France, continuing to carve designs very much in the style learned during his time with John, creating fine forms with minimal detail thus showing the natural beauty of the wood. Each piece is made individually and entirely by hand, from a piece of wood specifically chosen from a large selection of exotic and native hardwoods which need to be stored in ideal conditions to prevent degradation or damage before the work even begins. The timber must be perfectly seasoned to ensure the stability during and after carving - if the wood has too much moisture it will be difficult to carve and may develop cracks once finished. Neon Birds Their simplicity and vibrant colours make the Neon Birds a wonderful piece to display and a heart felt memento to mark a special occasion. The recipient of one of these delightful sculptures will treasure it for many years. Each bird is 15cm long and is presented in a stylish black gift box. The Beautifully simple Neon birds are available in five uber fashionable neon colours. Colours: Neon Green Finish Neon Orange Finish Neon Pink Finish Neon Yellow Finish Neon Purple Finish
