Ready to ship my 16th Centurry mouse to the Kunstsammlungen der Veste Coburg armour museum in Germany for a two year exhibition. I will be producing a limited edition of 12. I am asking $4,500.00 in Canadian funds or $3,200.00 equivalent in USD if you would be interested in owning one message me.

Today I finished the prototype 16th century mouse that is going to be on exhibition at the Kunstsammlungen der Veste Coburg for two years! This museum is a German castle that has one of the best preserved armour collections from the period. I am doing an edition of 12 if you’re interested in one.
