The Mouse in the Boot is a small work, executed by the master craftspeople of Olmart House with relentless precision. The mouse is made of mammoth ivory, and may be removed from the boot, and a gold cord placed in its paws. The shoe is formed of ebony, while 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.
