A Bigger Picture by Caio Locke

Shaped between his life in Britain and a strong connection to Brazil, Caio Locke interweaves interior and exterior worlds in the setting of his painted surreal cities. Architecture and structures lend him a space in which he explores his personal preoccupations with philosophy, culture, history, imagination and concepts of the future. An award-winning artist, his artworks have been collected and exhibited in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Caio Locke has tried to echo the spirit, intricacy and craftsmanship of iconic Faberge designs in his style, projecting past traditions into an imagined future. Reflecting the genesis motif of the egg, the design evokes a new beginning. 'A Bigger Picture' is at once detached and with its roots in the real world, allowing a space to be, a balance where the manmade and natural environment are entwined.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Delivery Information 

Elephant Family has partnered with IBI International Limited https://ibi-international.co.uk/ to ensure the safe handling and delivery of your egg/s.

Full Payment: 

Payment of donations is required in full before delivery arrangements for the egg/s can be made.

Winning bids cannot be cancelled, and bidders are obligated to pay the full bid when the auction closes.  

Delivery Times: 

Central London deliveries will take place within 10 working days from the auction closing.  

Due to the eggs being part of a public exhibition before sale, some eggs may require touch-ups/minor restoration before being delivered. While we will endeavour to do this in a timely manner, this means we are not able to guarantee a delivery time and will only be able to provide a rough estimate at point of sale. 

Please note, because of the nature of the artwork and the need to do this work by hand, this may also mean that the egg(s) are slightly altered from the original design on delivery.  

Delivery Charges: 

Delivery rates can be found on T&Cs page. A 10% handling fee, based on the final winning bid, will be applied in addition to delivery charges, the handling fee will cover the cost of the plinth and installation. IBI will invoice directly for all fees and charges which are subject to VAT. 

Storage Fees: 

Egg storage at IBI International is complimentary for the first 2 weeks post the auction closing date and charged at £25 per week plus VAT from then on. IBI will invoice you for this directly. In instances where the additional storage is required for restoration work, Elephant Family will cover this cost. 

International Shipping:  

International shipping will incur additional charges for customs, duties, and taxes, which are the buyer's responsibility.

Long-term Care

Each egg is a unique piece of art. As such, the Elephant Family cannot guarantee the quality of the sculpture long-term. It will be for the buyer to take appropriate care to preserve its longevity. We suggest, where possible, that the eggs are kept indoors or protected from the elements. Other maintenance activities such as regular varnishing may also be helpful. Where helpful, Elephant Family is happy to contact the egg artist for more information but cannot be held responsible for any damage or issues once the egg has been delivered.
