Richard Cooper Bronze Baby Elephant Running Figurine
Richard Cooper International Wildlife
Baby Elephant Running Figurine
Bronze Limited Edition of 200
Surprisingly, elephant calves can run at 25 mph, although technically, because they always have one foot on the ground, they are not running! They are also good swimmers. For the first four years of life, they need their Mother for milk and reassurance. In fact, for added reassurance, they suck their trunks in the same way human babies suck their thumbs.
- Height: 8cm
- Width: 12cm
- Depth: 5.7cm
- Weight: 456g
The baby elephant 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 is applied to create a deep, rich brown patina. The bronze is then sealed with a special wax, which further enhances the colour and protects it for years to come.
Your elephant is beautifully presented in a printed box containing a signed certificate of authenticity. The bronze is engraved with the sculptor's signature and the limited edition number, which matches the certificate enclosed.
