The sculpture is carved in Belorechensky quartzite and jasper, with silver and gold: a camel lying with its legs folded beneath it and its head raised, the shaggy coat worked all over. It wears a metal halter, and its lead chain falls to a loose ball of wire on the base, an oval slab of brown stone set in a patterned metal rim on small ornamental feet.
Materials: Belorechensky quartzite, jasper, silver, gold
Dimensions: length 15.5 cm
