St. Joseph Museums

The image shows a small, glossy ceramic figurine of a mouse, which is crafted in a playful pose as if it is balancing or perhaps dancing, with one leg raised and a gentle lean backwards; its arms are outstretched, with one hand holding a small, round white object, possibly a ball, that complements the overall design; the mouse's large ears and glossy finish add a sense of charm and whimsy, making it a delightful decorative object; a small string is attached to the figure, suggesting that it might be used as an ornament or a collectible item.
