British Design and Innovation is at the very core of Archipelago, renowned for their beautiful wildlife wood carvings.  Each piece is hand carved and painted so every one is unique.

From the first sketches to the final product, the Archipelago design team work directly with Fair Trade skilled carvers and sculptors to carefully manage the entire creative process.

All products are made from sustainable wood, giving an authentic and highly individual character to every piece made which is instantly recognisable.

Each piece comes with the "Archipelago" Teak Tag with logo and branding.

These stunning wood carvings make unique and wonderful gifts.

Please note, these beautiful items are all handmade and hand painted and as such each will be slightly different, the birds can vary a little in shade, painting and stance and the bases will differ as each piece of carefully chosen wood will be naturally individual.  These characteristics are what make each piece unique. The images shown are to give you an idea of what you will receive.

Here are some interesting facts about the Redshank:

The redshanks' most distinctive features are their bright orange-red legs. They have a medium-length bill with an orange base to match, brown speckled back and wings and paler belly. They breed in damp places like saltmarshes, flood meadows and around lakes, but during winter you'll see lots more of them on estuaries and coastal lagoons. They hunt for insects, earthworms, molluscs and crustaceans by probing their bills into soil and mud.
