A perfect scarab with all the little details. What an Egyptian metalsmith would have crafted, had the pharoahs dreamed of direct-metal printing.

To wear as a pendant, a simple 2mm-thick cord works well.

Both a tribute to ubiquitous, and lovely, hexagonal colour pencils, and a representation of what was coined by Joris Peels as 'combinatory manufacturing'.
Combine the connector piece with any set of 36 standard hexagonal pencils of about 7.0 mm cross section (measured at the smallest diameter). These types of sets are available around the world from many department stores and art supply stores - I’ve seen good sets for as little as 5 euro.
Examples of pencils that fit are Stabilo Aquacolor 1600, and Caran d’Ache Prismalo I, but there are many more. I’ve recently heard that in the US, Prismacolor Verithin Colored Pencils (available from Amazon and others) work well. Normal black pencils often have the same size and shape and can be used too.
If you are new to the Shapeways website: to order you will be asked to create an account (it's easy). Assembly may leave slight marks on pencils. For more information on this or other products, please visit www.michielcornelissen.com.

Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Mollusca
Class: Cephalopoda
Order: Octopoda
Suborder: Incirrina
Family: Octopodidae
Subfamily: Octopodinae
Species: Octopus vulgaris, the Common Octopus.
Members of the class cephalopoda are carnivorous hunters. They have the most advanced nervous system of all invertebrate animals and are an important example of advanced cognitive evolution in animals.
O. vulgaris is the most studied of all octopus species and possesses excellent eyesight, capable of distinguishing shapes, textures, and colour. It is the only animal which has been conclusively shown to use tools, and is proficient at learning simple processes such as unscrewing a jar.
Cephalopods are able to release dark pigment into the water as an escape mechanism, which in the past has been extracted and used by humans as an ink or dye. The word sepia comes from the Latin word for cuttlefish, s?pía.
The Ring:
This ring is made using 3D Printing.technology.
It is available in either stainless steel or silver.
It is available in sizes XS, S, M, L, XL. - ring size chart

Our entry into the Siri design competition, an accessory which slides onto the iPhone and serves as the 'face' of Siri. The androgynous face has a wry, elusive smile suggesting the machine knows something that the user does not.
Behind Siri's all-knowing gaze, the glow of the iphone screen is visible through the sculpture, and the main buttons are still accessible even when the screen is obscured.
The design, when placed over the iphone, forces the user to interact with Siri instead of tapping on the screen to engage commands. For more complicated tasks requiring the screen however, the phone can easily be slipped out of the top of the case.

A surprising arrangement of figures to create a mathematical form.
Please note that you must order TWO SETS to create the cube – each set includes two figures and four are necessary to create this sculpture. The figures are identical and snap together tightly hands to ankles to make this striking sculpture. Mix and match colors for your own effects. Or order more than two sets to experiment with other configurations.
This model is being exhibited at the Center for Arts Gallery at Towson University, June 30-July 28, 2012.

The first of a series of fitness-inspired accessories from SaGa Design.
It is inspired by the Finnish concept of "Sisu", which roughly translates as "determination" or "grit". The design appears to defy gravity, with the human figure being much smaller than the device he is supporting.
Through this seemingly intense struggle, the device is forced upright and the design symbolizes the infinite determination each of us is capable of summoning to overcome hardship.

Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Subphylum: Vertebrata
Class: Mammalia
Order: Lagomorpha
Family: Leporidae
Genus: Oryctolagus
Species: Oryctolagus cuniculus, the Common Rabbit.
The Common Rabbit is the only species of rabbit to be domesticated; all pet breeds are of this species. They are a social animal and are most active at dusk and dawn.
Recent research has shown that O. cuniculus carries common genetic markers and that all Common Rabbits descend from one of two maternal lines originating between 6.5 million and 12,000 years ago when glacial events localised two herds; one on the Iberian Peninsula and the other in Mediterranean France.
While the Common Rabbit is considered to be a pest in many countries where it has been introduced, including Australia, it is classed by the World Conservation Union (IUCN) as “Near Threatened” in its native range.

Oskar had his head 3D scanned. The eight pieces should be glued around a 2x2x2 Rubik's Cube with 24 mm edges (12 cm cubies). You may buy the inner cube from several sources, e.g. the Twisty Puzzles Shop.

Lichenfan sculpture is 3D printed by Shapeways in their 'sandstone' material, a gypsum based, very rigid, hard material that feels similar to sandstone.
It can be used as table top lighting with an L.E.D candle (battery powered candle). The LED candle is not included. Shapeways 3D prints and ships the light shade / sculpture part only.
Care instructions:The material can break if dropped on hard surfaces, handle it as you would a precious ceramic object. SAFETY NOTE: Not suitable for use with real candles.
This design can also be used as a lamp shade (extra parts required).
Add some 3D printed elegance to your table.
