It's not easy to find a good quality depiction of a mallard hen -- most statuettes are of the drake -- perhaps because the markings on the hen are delicate and subtle. The artist has done a wonderful job here, and I'm very happy with it. It occupies an honored place in our home.
I had admired these two for a very long time, but never allowed myself to purchase them. They are just lovely and make me smile every time I look at them. They are a charming addition to my cat and mouse collection..
I have been collecting elephant sculptures for man years. This is one of the best and largest in my collection. I receive may compliments on it. They always ask where I got it -- I spread about Novica.com.
