      This is one cool lion- ice cool to be exact! :D
      His pose and face is so excellently carved it makes me think he's been carved from a single block of ice that and the face his expression is so ancient and regal, like the kind seen on old cave paintings. I also like how relaxed and chilled out(!) his pose seems to be.

      Thanks Malkey for the sweet comment, glad you found this lion majestic and may I say, you are a glass-class act yourself my friend!

      Ken it does look rather like an ice carving here, think Viking was going for that with the clear & frosted combo in this lion face, fabulous compliments as always

      Thanks so much MrsT for the lovely praise, my husband the critic really loved this one & went ooh, so I think he agreed with you, I know that you can always count on Viking for a quality piece

      Thanks Thomas, I am super thrilled that you love this one and am totally grateful for the kind words

      Lauren my Leo friend, found another cool (pun intended lol) lion for you and super happy that you like him! It certainly does look like an ice sculpture, I showed the side view first so you can see his lovely paws which the outdoor sun illuminated. Agree that he does have a haughty regal look and I think quite realistic, like hey I'm king of the jungle and you'd best leave me alone! Many thanks for the wonderful praise

      Thanks share for the great compliment, the natural outdoor sunlight did wonders for this lion and really enhanced him - indoor photos of uncolored glass really don't show the full beauty of the animal. Very glad you liked my Leo

      Karen he IS rather a proud looking fella, giving off a don't mess with me vibe! Many thanks for your marvelous comment it is always uplifting to me when you enjoy my glass animals, you're very kind & thoughtful
