The Squirrel Sprint
This vintage brass sculpture of a squirrel is a truly one-of-a-kind find. Handcrafted with intricate detail, every etched line across its form captures the movement and energy of this nimble creature. It's a standout piece of decor that brings character and craftsmanship into any space.
Made using the ancient Dhokra technique — a lost-wax metal casting method practiced by tribal artisans in central and eastern India — this sculpture is part of a 4,000-year-old tradition. Once used to craft ritualistic figures and animal forms, Dhokra art celebrates nature, mythology, and daily tribal life through metal.
In many traditions, the squirrel represents preparation, resourcefulness, and agility. This antique brass piece not only embodies those qualities but also serves as a rare example of living heritage — blending symbolism and artisan skill in a form that feels both rooted and contemporary.
