Together, the male and female cardinal make one of nature's most iconic pairings — his bold crimson beside her warm, rose-flushed brown. This hand carved wooden cardinal pair brings that natural symmetry into your home: two individually sculpted birds, each painted by hand, sold together at a discounted price.
The cardinal is the state bird of seven US states. Cardinals mate for life — making this pair a deeply meaningful gift for couples, weddings, and anniversaries. Wood is the traditional 5th anniversary gift, and the paired birds carry their own symbolism of lifelong partnership.
Cardinal — Male | 7"H · Cardinal — Female | 7"H · Cardinal Ornament — Hanging · Mini Cardinal Ornament — 3.5"H
Aviologie's style has elements of distressing and natural variation that are part of what makes each piece unique. Their photos represent the birds accurately, but they are individually hand carved pieces with the soul of variation, not cast resin replicas.
Jesus said "consider the birds" (Luke 12:24), so they did!
Designed on Vancouver Island by Anna & David, each bird is brought to life by the same three families of skilled artisans they have supported, and been supported by, for over 15 years.
Drawing on centuries-old village carving techniques, they blend indigenous folk art with modern design to create timeless art pieces that are simple, refined, and equally at home in settings (rustic, classic or modern), as varied as their customers.
