A tired, sad little gargoyle who’s clearly read too many heartbreaking books.
This gothic gargoyle trinket box is designed as a small decorative ornament with a hidden storage compartment inside the stack of books. Sitting sadly with an open book in hand, he looks like he’s one chapter away from giving up entirely.
Perfect for fantasy readers, gothic decor lovers, bookworms, or anyone who enjoys slightly dramatic little creatures.
The top section lifts away from the book stack to reveal a hidden compartment inside, ideal for storing jewellery, coins, earbuds, dice, small keepsakes or other bits and pieces.
Designed and 3D printed by me at home in the UK.
