Bad Apple – Hand-Poured 999+ Silver Collectible
Reserve Edition
It Spreads. One Choice Becomes Many.
The Bad Apple doesn't stay contained. What starts small expands — a single compromised choice can corrupt the whole barrel, and this piece knows it. The Bad Apple is at once a warning, a dark joke, and a remarkably honest observation about how influence works: not always through direct action, but through proximity and patience. This sculpture captures that iconic symbol in its most dramatic form — the rotten apple at its corrupted peak, dark and detailed. Cast in 999+ fine silver with an antique patina, every sinister detail of the form is hand-finished to bring this darkly humorous piece to life in precious metal.
What You're Getting:
- Hand-poured 999+ fine silver with an antique silver finish
- Available in 1oz, 3oz, 6oz, 12oz, and 24oz
- Hand-finished for form and full detail throughout
- Marked for weight and purity
- Includes a certificate of authenticity
For the Darkly Humored and the Iconoclast
A standout piece for collectors who appreciate dark humor, gothic art enthusiasts, Halloween fans, and anyone who has always appreciated the particular honesty of the Bad Apple metaphor. One of Gold Spartan's most distinctively unexpected pieces.
About the Reserve Edition
The Bad Apple is a Reserve Edition statue. Every size is limited to a maximum of 100 pieces -- 500 for the 1oz. Once a size reaches that number, it will never be cast again. Each Reserve piece ships with a metal Certificate of Authenticity, laser-engraved with the name of the statue and the individual number that matches your specific piece.
The Reserve line is for collectors who want something permanently scarce -- a piece with a defined place in a fixed run that closes for good. For collectors who want a specific Gold Spartan design without a mintage cap, the Standard Edition line remains available continuously.
Shipping and returns
Most pieces are made to order and ship in about 2 to 3 weeks. Larger and custom orders can take longer. Every shipment is tracked and insured. Eligible items may be returned within 30 days of receipt.
What arrives in the box
Your statue arrives in a foam-lined collector box with a certificate of authenticity and a polishing cloth.
