The most loved of our woodland animals, immortalised as Squirrel Nutkin, the Red Squirrel has unusual qualities, whether in hanging upside down, swimming, or showing amazing memory in being able to find food previously hidden in twelve inches of snow. Height: 4cm x Width: 2cm x Depth: 2.5cm Weight: 24g This charming bronze figurine is made in solid foundry bronze using the ancient method of lost wax casting. The design is 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. Then bronze is then sealed with a special wax which further enhances the colour and protects the bronze for years to come. Show more
