Green Marble Mouse from Rev. Ross McClellan

Object/Artifact

-

St. Joseph Museums

The image displays a small, whimsical decorative object shaped like a mouse, made from glossy, green glass marbles. The mouse's ears are formed by two large marbles on top, with a smaller marble representing the head, and two more at the bottom resembling the body. Its eyes are humorously googly, attached to the head, giving it a playful expression. A small red piece represents the nose, while thin black strands in front serve as whiskers. A white circular band encircles the neck area, and white strings are attached to the side, possibly representing arms or feet. A brown loop is attached to its top, suggesting it might be used for hanging, perhaps as an ornament. The surface on which the mouse sits is textured and light-colored, contrasting with the vivid green of the glass. A partially visible white tag with text is in the background, possibly offering information on the object.
