The delicate Snowdrop, symbolic of Spring, hope and new beginnings has caught the attention of a wandering little mouse in this sweet design by Michael Simpson.  The strength of bronze is utilised in the sculpting of the fine stem and foliage, gently curving over the curious mouse as it takes in the flowers scent.
This beautiful design is made in solid foundry bronze using the ancient method of lost wax casting. The design finished by the art of patination where various acids are applied to the surface of the bronze and heat applied to create a deep rich brown patina.  The Poppy, foliage and Honey Bee are delicately hand painted in artists oils. Then bronze is then sealed with a special wax which further enhances the colour and protects the bronze for years to come.
Your bronze is beautifully presented in a printed box containing a signed certificate of authenticity. The bronze is engraved with the sculptor’s signature and limited edition number, matching the certificate enclosed.
