Alfred is making a special guest appearance from The Snail Emporium.

Alfred is a bit of a show-off. He prides himself on being very strong, and boasts about how he once came third in the 2007 World's Strongest Snail competition. He deadlifted 22 grams, and narrowly missed out on the title after being disqualified on the third lift for supporting the bar on his neck.

Alfred is made from polymer clay, and he has black onyx eyes and flower stamen feelers. His shell has been made using a millefiori technique and has been finished with two coats of gloss varnish. He measures 6.5cm long and 3cm to the top of his shell.

Alfred is signed with an artist's mark - a slice of my unique monogram 'QC' cane. He comes in a smart presentation box with a signed certificate, and will be sent safely by first class recorded delivery post within the UK.
