Hippopotamus

A small and speedy piece, patterned from a bowl I saw at an Egyptian art exhibition. The triangles on the back represent lotuses, and are made from from copper wire I tinned and soldered to the foiled glass.

Leg Revision

I revised the pattern after finishing the piece, as the triangle legs were too small and difficult to process.
