coppertist.wu’s octopus holder is a perfect desk accent

 

Coppertist.Wu is a community of makers capturing the charm of wildlife through whimsical metal accessories — and their latest piece might just be what you’re looking for. Made of bronze, the octopus holder is a charming replica of the tentacled creature, designed to safely cradle your phone while watching videos or listening to music, creating the perfect accent for any desk. ‘It’s not only a great conversation starter but an amazing collectible piece of art as well,’ shares the brand. you can shop the desk accessory on designboom here!

Coppertist.Wu (see more here) mimicked the ocean creature’s unique and mysterious look to the best of its ability while still maintaining high decorative and functional properties. That said, the desk accent octopus holder can do more than support your gadgets; its gently arched tentacles also serve as pen holders. ‘Perhaps he has more functions, waiting for you to discover,’ adds the artist collective.

celebrating and raising awareness around wildlife

 

While the brand’s wildlife inspiration does spark whimsy and fresh aesthetics, its mission and story runs deeper: ‘Metal represents eternity, we are driven by full passion to present our unique work, because each piece carries on our existence in the world. And animals are an important part of our design process; our mission has always been to showcase the beauty of wildlife through our unique art. We firmly believe that by raising awareness of these various creatures, society will take notice and treat them with more respect. That respect could better protect our remaining wildlife and a more harmonious union between man and nature.’
