Description

Wooden pattern of "Lion Rampant". This pattern can be used for the manufacture of a mould. The pattern depicts a lion in profile standing on its hind legs with its front leg and paw outstretched. The lion is facing left and has its tail high up against the back of its head. The hind leg of the lion has a small projection at the bottom giving possible indications that this mould would be produced as a mirror image of the lion in 3-dimensional. The projection could then be slotted into a base to use the lion as a mascot or some such commemorative object.
