The spotted sandpiper's polka-dot breeding plumage and constant tail-bobbing make it one of the most characterful birds on the North American coastline. This hand carved wooden spotted sandpiper in the straight standing pose captures its alert, upright stance with careful painted detail — those distinctive spots and warm buff tones faithfully rendered by hand.

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.
