dogs





Bully, a humorous Frenchie, is the one of the few pieces in the series with abstract elements. The idea started with a bell which Nirit was eager to incorporate into the collection, and the French bulldog seemed most appropriate. Bulla, the female version, was made as a companion to Bully.




Metal gear parts, which are round and allow air to move through them, were the perfect material to capture the graceful and fragile appearance of the Saluki. Nirit became fascinated with the breed, which is also known for its strength and intelligence, after playing with a friend's hound on the beach one afternoon.


Lola is an adorable little mutt near and dear to Nirit's heart - a replica of Nirit's sister's beloved dog Lola. Real-life Lola is known for her wit and good looks. Nirit calls her The Super Model.
