Big mouse standing bronze
About the Item
Huge sculpture of a rat with a dark brown patina, its pose reinforces the schematic
treatment. Its simple head and hardly figured moustache, its smooth and plump
body and very detailed tail rolled up on his right side give this sculpture a
undebatable charm. Especially since all around Asia rats are seen as rather positive
animals, its as much a symbol of intelligence and good luck than it is a symbol of
prosperity fertility and wealth
