a turtle- a real turtle not my cat



My aunt Phylp came down to visit from Sydney this weekend. SHe is a sculpturer and she is always spoiling me.
She made me this divine tiny bronze turtle knowing my affection for turtles , it is so beautiful and detailed and so like a real little turtle.I'm not sure it's really done justice by photos, but I've tried my best. It's really quite small, so I've included a pic of it on a matchbox to give a sense of scale. I think she is amazing she can do something like this.
Last time she came down she made me this too. Aren't I spoilt?
