About Parvum Opus

Parvum Opus is an atelier-style artist’s studio founded by Erika Stefanutti and located outside of Detroit, Michigan specializing in handmade decorative objects and home furnishings, including shadow boxes and cameos evocative of classic curiosity cabinets.

Their name is inspired by the Latin term for a small work by an artist (Parvum: little, a trifle; Opus: an artistic work), and perfectly describes their approach to each project they undertake: small things, beautifully done.
