Limited edition bronze.

This highly detailed bronze miniature of a Brazilian Three Banded Armadillo (means little armoured ones in Spanish) shows the detailed outer casing structure of this fascinating creature. Armadillos are characterized by a leathery armour shell and long, sharp claws for digging. This piece was made using the lost wax method of casting, and during the initial carving process great care was taken by the artist to accurately render and highlight the detailed armour shell that this species is famous for. This is a tactile piece and is designed to be closely examined, held in the hand and passed around. It comes with a tiny wooden stand.
