Introducing the Thylacine.

The first animal to emerge from Animals With Bite, The World of the Exceptional collection by W.J. Sanders.

The story began with the acquisition of an original 1930s W.J. Sanders Thylacine, mounted on malachite. Identified at auction by W.J. Sanders’ original 1930s Hallmark, the piece’s discovery revealed a remarkable piece of the brand’s silversmithing heritage.

Now reimagined for today, the Thylacine is handcrafted in sterling silver, with black enamel detailing, diamond accents and a natural malachite base. Each piece retains the distinctive character of the original, while celebrating the craftsmanship that continues to define W.J. Sanders.

Where an idea becomes an exceptional object.

Inspired by the acquisition of a heritage W.J. Sanders piece - a sterling silver thylacine mounted on a malachite base - the Animals with Bite collection reimagines Australia’s remarkable wildlife for today.

Bringing these creatures to life begins with careful observation of their distinctive forms, character and presence.

From the initial concept through to the finished sculpture, every detail is considered to create a piece that feels both expressive and true to its subject.

Our master silversmiths translate these designs into tangible works through a combination of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary techniques.

Forming, shaping, soldering, texturing and finishing are carried out with precision, with each stage contributing to the character and realism of the final piece.

Precious metals and considered surface treatments bring further depth to each sculpture, while intricate details give every animal its own expression and personality.

The result is a collection that connects Australian natural history with the enduring craft of silversmithing — reimagining the wild through the skilled hands of our master craftspeople.
