"Fun gifts for Year of the Mouse (Rat)"
Claudio Ojedas ornaments are always amazing... Such artistic detail.. I have purchased many of Claudios ornaments to give to friends as gifts... I keep one for myself, of course. Looking forward to see what new ones he creates.

"Ingenious idea"
I bought 15 of these mice work and because I love the medallion painting on their backs. Very intricate and delicate workmanship and I must commend the artist, Claudio Ojeda, on his patience and creativity.

"Fun and festive goats!"
These adorable goats are beautifully decorated! I bought them for a friend to remind her that she is the GOAT - the greatest of all time! They would also be perfect for someone who just likes goats.

"This is now a beautiful Xmas ornament!"
I never intended to use this beautiful piece as a key fob - it is much too precious to be subjected to the wear and tear of being used for keys. The finely detailed and intricate hand painting is of the highest quality. The vibrant colors and the wide eyes make this a stand out piece!
