Mouse by a Cup of Coffee is an artwork that combines mammoth tusk with ebony and gold. As in our other works, the master craftspeople of Olmart House have here compellingly depicted a host of different surfaces – porcelain, cheese, sugar pieces, and wool – in the exquisite material of ancient ivory. A gold spoon immersed in coffee is made of ebony, along with the tray on which the piece rests. The mouse’s eyes are garnets.
Mammoth ivory is a unique material because of its value and properties. Tusks which have been lying for tens of thousands of years in permafrost, are extracted today in just a few regions of our planet. A very small percentage can be kept in a condition suitable for sculpture manufacturing. The Olmart House uses mammoth ivory of superior quality only.

Ebony is the black tree which grows in the humid tropical forests of Africa and Asia, and it belongs to the rarest and the most valuable wood species. Very hard and heavy, drowning in water, it requires special continuous processing, special drying conditions, before it becomes suitable for carving and making artworks.
