Item Description
This fascinating bronze sculpture depicts a leopard, with its magnificent spotted coat hand crafted into the surface.

Great significance is placed on these creatures who are seen to rule over the savannah just like a King. Showing signs of its age, this sculpture certainly has a remarkable story to be uncovered.
