The Snail Knob was created for Petra by artist and Block Shop co-founder Hopie Stockman Hill, and inspired by the famous giant snail from the 1967 film Dr. Doolittle as well as the Taschen Book of Symbols, where the snail is described as a metaphor for resilience, slow and steady progress, and adaptation. Initially hand-sculpted in clay, the Snail Knob is hand-cast in unlacquered brass at an LA foundry and comes in both a left-facing and a right-facing orientation, each with a slightly different sizing. Every piece is 100% unique and may have irregularities or imperfections. Unlacquered brass will patina with time, but can be restored to its original shine with a polish such as Brasso.
