I bought this sweet little mouse on eBay.  It wasn't cheap, and with postage, it was more than I should be spending,  but when he arrived I was so glad I did buy him.

He is hollow, has the cutest face, is latticino and I think, filligrana patterning.  The tail, ears and feet have aventurine,  or it might be gold....not too certain. Eyes and nose anre applied Blackish purple, and the patterns are turquoise and purple.
He is 2.5" long and just ADORABLE .
If you think you can help identify the maker, I would be so grateful.
Anita,  it goes without saying, if you want pictures for the Zoo.........a big YES!

Thank you Rose and Nancy....I think he is just scrumptious.

I am hoping Anita will have a look and see what she thinks.  :X:

I looked, Rosie, but am clueless about who made it. I think it is a sweet little mouse. And the cane work is very good, so someone took some care with it.

Thank you for dropping by Anita.  :kissy: I am so pleased you think he is quality,  I did as well,  but if you don't know who made him, then I don't feel so bad that I don't either!  :-\
He will just have to go on the 'Unknown Adorables' shelf!
So everybody,  you are all on 'Mouse Watch' until we find out!
