Mullanium

Jim and Tori Mullan met in 1985 and soon discovered that they shared many of the same interests in old watches, jewelry and antiques. They combined their individual talents and formed a partnership in work and in life. Their fascination of birds, nature and antiques is very present in their vast collection of vintage hardware, bird carvings and watches that fills up a 3300 square foot studio in Pompano Beach, Florida.

Greenleaf Gallery is excited to be able to offer a collection of Jim and Tori's amazingly detailed and unique song birds, mirrors and boxes. We are showing a small selection of their work below; please call us at 847.948.7689 for more information about each piece as they are subject to prior sale. Reorders are available on a limited basis.

 

Songbirds: Jim and Tori's fascination with birds and antique found objects are what inspired them for this collection. The songbirds were carved as hunting decoys between the 1930s and 1950s and were passed onto the Mullans in the 1990s. They are hand painted and then embellished with vintage materials. The unusual relics they also use such as croquet balls, binoculars and old toys give each inspiring bird their own personality.
