Endangered animals soft enamel pins in eastern mythical illustration style.
Story
Nowadays there are many endangered animals, which need our help in order to maintain their existence in this world. If we do not pay attention to these rare animals now, they will probably extinct from the world soon, and our next generation can only know these animals from books or videos, these animals will become a myth to them (just like dinosaurs!).
Under this concept, we have picked 6 endangered animals that are relatively rare to the public: Tree Pangolin, Iberian lynx, Philippine Eagle, Green Sea Turtle, Grevy’s Zebra, Blue Whale. We turn these endangered animals into a myth creature, with a mythical illustration style reference from Shan Hai Jing (山海經 in Chinese, an old mythical illustration book from China called “Book of Mountain and Sea”, which features lots of imaginative creatures on earth), to remind everyone that these animals can be extinct from the world anytime. These myth creatures will be in a pin format, which can be in fashion accessories for daily matching and also an ideal gift to friends.
This is our first start on the development of the pin, more and more animals are expected to be developed, we aim to have a vote of featured animals in the next phase in 2021!
