The mechanical artwork of metalsmith and jewelry-maker Dukno Yoon simulate the flapping of wings through the simple swish of a finger, or powered by metronome. Artist's Series, youtube
These are lovely. But even thought I know it's ridiculous to respond to jewelry* with "that's so impractical," it does seem hard to appreciate these as anything other than art objects you just happen to be able to wear, rather than adornments that are raised to the level of art. Still, they're so gorgeous.
