Full description

Meet Giles. He's always stuck in a book (not literally, although it's been a close thing on occasion). He's a very intelligent chap, and did a lot of work on the BBC Radio 4 homing snails experiment. He's waiting for the results to be published in Mollusc Monthly.

Giles is nearly 7cm long and just over 3cm high and is made entirely from polymer clay (apart from his eyes, feelers and spectacles). His shell is a unique blend of browns and creams that will never be repeated. Oh yes, they broke the mould when Giles was made.

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