An antique reproduction of a small Victorian hand, designed to hang beautifully on the wall and hold a ring or a necklace. Paired with a poem of your choice on a card featuring an antique book cover. Perfect for adding charm to a gallery wall, reading nook, or beside a bookshelf, it’s an ideal gift for anyone who appreciates unusual, story-filled décor.
This hand is a handmade cast reproduction of a rare antique original that once held a seashell, long since lost to time. Each piece is cast from the mold of that single antique hand and exists only through this studio. It was made to hold something, to offer something, and it still does.
The hand serves as a striking little wall accent. Graphic, slightly mysterious, and easy to place, it adds instant personality whether mounted beside books, tucked into a gallery wall, or hung where it can quietly catch the eye. Once it’s on the wall, you can rotate the hand to any direction you like. It can hold rings or necklaces, but mostly it just makes a home feel more interesting and unmistakably yours. It’s designed to hang using the included recessed wall-mount system, but can also sit on a table with the included cork pads if you decide to move it later.
Each hand comes with the card you choose, along with a small wooden holder to display it. Given as a gift, it becomes a quiet symbol of connection and a reminder that someone is thought of, remembered, and cared for. Each card features art from antique book covers and poems by timeless voices like Rilke, Rossetti, Yeats, and Blake, alongside other classic poets and proverbs. You can also choose the full 12-card library as an optional upgrade.
Made from Hydrostone and finished in-studio, the gold hand captures the texture and patina of a true antique, giving it a warm, tactile presence that feels historic and one-of-a-kind.
It arrives in a gift-ready box with a card and holder, certificate of authenticity, cork pads, and wall-hanging hardware — ready to hang or ready to give.
