Bronze, Tin - Tsuda Eiju (1915-2001) - Panther silver with shadow - Shōwa period (1926-1989)

This is an silver colored with shadow panther. Since ancient times, Japan has been surrounded by the sea and has a high humidity level. Silver oxidizes quickly, which is why tin is used for silver-colored products. Tin can produce a unique, deep silver color. This panther's deep silver color, aged to a darker shade, enhances its presence. The darker shade also effectively captures the texture of the panther's muscles. The artist is casting artist Eiju Tsuda. His animal sculptures are popular both in Japan and overseas. The material is not 99% tin, but contains alloys such as bronze. This allows for a deep darker color. It did not react to a magnet, so it is not iron. The condition is Excellent. Size Height 10.5cm, Width 27cm x 7cm Weight 1220g
