This
bronze sculpture was designed by international artist Mark Stoddart,
the owner of the company, on seeing the Hippopotamus on visits
to Africa. To date the hippopotamus design has been very popular throughout the UK, Europe and as far away as Australia, New Zealand, Florida & Tokyo. As with all our sculptures, it is made to a limited edition of 99 which have now all been sold. To view the new Hippo Coffee Table design due to be launched in 2004, click here. Mark feels he has captured the Hippo in a way that appeals to people from all walks of life that is both fun and unusual. The glass represents water, the Hippo's head and back sitting our of the water line. The
Hippo collectibles are so endearing that some customers have named
their hippos, see below. As yet the first mold, known as the "Artists
Approval" has not been named - email
in your suggestions and we'll announce the winning name in due
course. Due to demand, visitors can now register
their interest in the Hippo table - if any come back on the market,
those on the waiting list will have first offer.
Please be informed that I have now changed address - Earl of St Helier (#95) If there are any other Hippo's out there that are on the move please keep your friends and family informed. |
