Philip Colbert Releases 100 Macao-only Limited Edition ‘Lobster Cockerel’ Collectables

Exclusively sold at The Venetian Macao

 

（Macao, May 27, 2025） – The lobster craze is unstoppable! World-renowned pop art master Philip Colbert recently joined hands with Sands China to release a Macao-only limited-edition Lobster Cockerel collectible – 38-centimetres-high and strictly limited to just 100 pieces, sold nowhere else in the world but at The Venetian Macao – a rare and fleeting opportunity for art enthusiasts.

Colbert has captivated global audiences with his signature cartoon Lobster character, masterfully blending avant-garde surrealism with bold contemporary appeal. Lobsters are a symbol of auspiciousness, longevity and eternal love, thus considered to carry blessings with them. The newly unveiled collectible is a smaller version of Colbert’s original urban sculpture Lobster Cockerel, specially made for Macao – a work created to reflect the thematic essence of the Taipa Houses, one of Macao’s significant scenic spots – as part of Sands China’s community revitalization series. The bright red Lobster embraces local characteristics by dressing in traditional Portuguese rooster attire and headpiece, transforming into a cultural ambassador celebrating Macao’s unique East-meets-West heritage – a distinctive urban and cultural icon that encapsulates the city’s identity. 

Each limited-edition Lobster Cockerel collectible comes with a unique serial number, boosting its value for collectors, and is priced at MOP 4,770. Starting from today, art enthusiasts are welcome to visit the following purchase points at The Venetian® Macao to acquire their own collectible and let Lobster transport them to his realm of artistic wonder:
