By Alfred Zimmerman Idar-Oberstein, Germany Animal carving at its finest, this whimsical figure demonstrates the savvy eye of the artist who has utilized the banded nature of the original agate specimen to show gradations in the mouse's fur, particularly at the edges. The eyes are formed of sapphire cabochons, the tail is mounted with 18K yellow gold as are the skates and whiskers. The suggestion of glacial waters of an icy pond is created by the wedge-shaped slice of aquamarine, weighing approximately 222.50 carats. Length 4in
