{"product_id":"miniature-brass-squirrel","title":"Miniature Brass Squirrel","description":"\u003cp\u003eCaught in a familiar moment, this miniature squirrel is shown sitting upright with a nut held between its front paws. Its generously curved tail forms the most distinctive part of the silhouette, with deeply incised lines creating a sense of texture and movement across the brass surface. The simplified face and compact proportions give the figure a charming, almost folk-like character.\n\nCast by hand in brass, the piece turns an everyday woodland creature into a small decorative object with warmth and personality. The details are deliberately uncomplicated yet expressive-from the tiny ears and attentive face to the carefully held nut and sweeping tail. Marks, tonal differences and minor irregularities may occur as a result of the casting and finishing process, lending each figurine its own individual character rather than the uniformity of a machine-made object.\n\nThe squirrel is widely associated with resourcefulness, preparation, energy and adaptability, inspired by its instinct to gather and store food for the future. This makes the figurine a particularly thoughtful little keepsake for a new beginning, a new home or simply for someone who loves wildlife and nature.\n\nSmall enough to fit comfortably in the palm of a hand, it can find a place on a desk, bookshelf, bedside table, mantel, windowsill or amongst plants and collected curios. Its sculptural profile also makes it an appealing addition to a group of miniature brass animals, while the warm metallic finish allows it to sit comfortably in both traditional and contemporary interiors.\n\nThe brass will naturally respond to time, air and handling, gradually acquiring a deeper tone and patina. This evolving surface is part of the material's character and can be retained for an aged appearance or gently polished if a brighter finish is preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e height 3cm, length 3.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 70.3 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandmade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, individually crafted by skilled artisans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDust with a soft, dry cloth.
