The Loet Vanderveen Imperial Rhino

Filed under: Decor, Art

The Rhinoceros may not be a natural beauty, but in the hands of renowned wildlife sculptor Loet Vanderveen, the legendary fire-stamper is transformed.

Vanderveen's Imperial Rhino is hand-cast in bronze using the lost-wax method. With a sleek, hand-applied silver patina, the Imperial Rhino reflects the refined strength common in Vanderveen's work.

Measuring 13" high and 28" long, the glowing Imperial Rhino is made in the USA and sells for $6,695 at Gumps.
