This silver plated leopard sculpture is created by D'Argenta and artist Ricardo Del Rio. Collectors will really enjoy this wonderfully detailed sculpture that features a leopard asleep on a branch after a long day of hunting on the African Savannah. Through a combination of cold casting and electroforming, this leopard sculpture is initially plated with a .015 inch thick layer of copper and then silver plated at a thickness of .001 of an inch (24 micras).
