MAGNIFICENT CARVINGS
FROM AVOCADO SEEDS
G'day folks,
I've also been creative with avocado seeds, but these are clever. All I did, was lay them in a large terra cotta bowl, fill it with water and watch them grow into a tiny forest. It looked brilliant sitting on a table. Anyway ...
One day, Jan Campbell was preparing an avocado for lunch when she was
suddenly struck by the beauty of the pit inside – an object that most people
throw away without giving it a second thought. After weeks of pondering the
pit’s potential, she decided to scratch away its layers until she had a
beautiful piece of art right before her eyes.
Ever since that day, Campbell has been turning avocado pits into tiny,
intricately detailed figurines inspired by Celtic folklore. She carves into
these seeds, the tranquil faces of forest spirits, the flowing hair of ancient
goddesses, and even a handful of wild mushrooms every now and then. These
miniatures can be displayed as statues, or worn as pendants, and are meant to
provide the holder with a unique sense of companionship and comfort. Some of
Campbell’s best creations can be seen below:
