Leopard, Lim. 25, H 14 cm

The porcelain captures the leopard’s coiled tension perfectly, with each muscle and spot painted in such fine detail that it feels alive. It’s become the focal point of my shelf, drawing comments from everyone who visits.

I was initially worried about the size, but at 14 cm tall, it has just the right presence on my shelf without being overwhelming. The expression on its face is so lively and full of character—you can really see the artist's 1911 vision coming through.

The little leopard has so much personality for its size, and the hand-painted details really bring the 1911 design to life. It fits perfectly on my desk, adding a touch of whimsy alongside my other porcelain pieces.
