Fly – Hand-Poured 999+ Silver Collectible
Reserve Edition
Everywhere at Once. Nothing Escapes Notice.
The fly is one of nature's most improbable survivalists — compound eyes that see in nearly every direction simultaneously, a flight system capable of impossible mid-air maneuvers, and the ability to thrive in virtually any environment on earth. This sculpture captures the fly in full detail: the compound eyes, the veined wings, the segmented body, and every remarkable anatomical feature of an insect that has survived on earth for hundreds of millions of years. Cast in 999+ fine silver with an antique patina, every element is hand-finished to bring one of nature's most overlooked engineering marvels to life in precious metal.
What You're Getting:
- Hand-poured 999+ fine silver with an antique silver finish
- Available in 1oz, 3oz, and 6oz
- Hand-finished for eye, wing, and full anatomical detail throughout
- Marked for weight and purity
- Includes a certificate of authenticity
For the Entomologist and the Collector of the Unexpected
A standout piece for insect enthusiasts, natural history collectors, and anyone who appreciates the unexpected — the subject that nobody expects to see in precious metal, and that is all the more impressive for it. One of the most distinctively unconventional pieces in the Gold Spartan catalog.
About the Reserve Edition
The Fly 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.
