Gift Box: 4 button badges (Sad Faces)

This elegant matchbox-style gift box contains four designs from Stereohype's growing button badge collection – now available for the first time in this superb packaging solution. A rose-gold foil-blocked Stereohype mascot squirrel was hand-printed in the UK at the top of the gift box (outside dimensions: 75 x 72 x 16mm). Inside the beautiful matt black cardboard gift box is a black flock pad and badges are directly pinned into it. All Stereohype button badges available at stereohype.com are classic high quality one inch (25mm) metal back badges with so-called D-pin (although it looks more like an 'e'). Tiny stickers at the back of each button badge mention the artist, release date, series number, etc. Badges are manufactured with love and care in the United Kingdom.

These artworks are also available as Button Badge Motif Prints.

Joseph Dunkerley, is 23 year old multi disciplined artist specialising in digital art and animation. Coming from a background in independent video game design, starting work as a 3D artist on the 2016 voxel based fast paced shooter ‘Critical Annihilation’; before dabbling in Virtual Reality and later going on to work as an 'Artist in Residence' at Ashford School. His animated work explores the intricate relation between the visual and motion aspects of art, crafting highly expressive surrealist dreamscapes from the depths of the human imagination and breathing life into them through the virtual puppetry of animation. Now focusing on ultra clean minimalism, he strives to bring fiery hot visual spice to the medium.
