About the Item
Huge sculpture of a mouse (or rat), with a rather dark patina, represented with a
schematic expression and realized with the hollow bronze technique. It is represented
in extension from its rear, with its head leaning on its upper paws, the detailed tail
deploys at the left of the subject to balance its weight.
This dynamic pose suggests that this animal is half way between lying down and
sitting, in an attempt to emphasizes the fact that he is weather sited to eat or trying to
get up to see better its environment. Rats are well considered all around Asia, in fact
in Japan it is a symbol of intelligence, chance, and prosperity.

Hand Carved Animal Figure, Rat Talisman for Home
By MOISEIKIN
Located in Hong Kong, HK
The Urals in Russia are rich in semi-precious stones, so this region has become one of the leaders among the Russian "workshops" of artistic carving on marble, jasper, rhodonite, rock crystal and other ornamental stones. The beginning of the path of widespread dissemination of stone-cutting art in Russia dates back to the end of the 18th century. The tradition of the Ural art stone carving still exists. Skilled craftsmen of the MOISEIKIN not only preserve, but also develop the tradition, using the latest technologies and creativities to make original stone-cut sculptures.
