Time Bat

from a private collection
Adorned in blood red garnets set in 14k gold this small footed bat has eyes of golden topaz and wings armored in brass filigree. With the use of a crystal ball hand crank this majestic bat flaps his wings. Trapped between dimensions he is forever encapsulated within an hour glass shaped dome and sealed with a clock. It’s base is created from an actual mahogany urn decorated with antique brass roses.
