Stone-cut miniature Behemoth, Faberge style.

Stone-cut miniature Behemoth, Faberge style.
Jade, stone-cutting miniature "Behemoth". The finely crafted figurine depicts a standing hippopotamus with an open mouth. The characteristic corpulence and sluggishness are set off by the details of the ears, the ridge and the pressed tail. Accurately selected stone, successfully repeats the texture of the skin of an animal. The fangs in the mouth are made of mammoth tusk. Together with the dark base of the paws, they create a complete illusion of believability. Jade: about 128 gr. Author`s signature on the paw.
