Mouse with heart charm by Terry Chance

This quirky little mouse was handmade using the copper foil technique. Glass is scored and cut, edges are ground and then wrapped in copper foil. Wire work is added to create the mouse’s expression, its whiskers, its curled tail, and the tiny feet that allow it to stand. Following this, both wire and foil are soldered with a mix of lead and tin. The mouse is then given a thorough polish and adorned with a heart charm.

Dimensions, including wirework, approximately 9x4.5x3cm.

All mice are made using opaque grey marbled glass.

As a handmade original each mouse is unique, slight variations are to be expected.
