Beetles have such interesting sculptural shapes to help them fit in their environment. This is Gomez and his pinchers help him fight rival male beetles. He is solid bronze, made by the lost wax method. He is hand cast and finished and polished to a mirror finish.
Bronze develops a rich patina as it is exposed to oxygen that give the pieces depth and texture and bronze has such an interesting history and has been used for everything from weapons of war to works of art.
Gomez is 2" long and 5/8" wide. He comes with your choice of a knotted leather cord, an 18" metal chain or a 24" metal chain and you can see what each choice looks like in the photographs. The leather, the 18" chain and the 24" chain are the top three in the picture.
