Functional Collectible Sculpture Design

I’m developing a small collectible sculpture that does more than just sit on a shelf—I want it to perform a simple, useful task while still feeling like a limited-edition art piece. Think along the lines of a desk accessory that doubles as a striking display object.

Here’s what I need from you:
• 2–3 concept sketches that explore different forms and simple mechanics.
• A finalized 3D CAD model (STEP and STL) ready for prototyping or short-run production.
• Recommendations on the most suitable material—metal, wood, ceramic, resin, or a clever combination—outlining pros, cons, and finish options.
• An exploded view or brief assembly guide if any parts move or fit together.

I’m flexible on size and style as long as the finished piece feels premium and truly functional. Experience in product or industrial design, sculpture, and 3D modeling software such as SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or Rhino will be ideal.

If you enjoy blending art with practical design, let’s collaborate and create something collectors will actually use and proudly showcase.
