Beautiful Likeness of a Unique Duck
In 2018 a Mandarin duck appeared in Central Park, New York seemingly out of nowhere. That sparked my fascination with this duck. I was surprised and pleased to find this sculpture years later and was able to "capture" my own Mandarin duck. I love the sculpture and the incredible attention to detail and the realistic faithfulness to the duck. Okay, the real duck looks a little like a toy as well, but I am thrilled to have another sculpture by Nengah Sudarsana, and this one joins my small flock of ducks by him. Perhaps I'll take it to the lake in Central Park and see if another real one will show up to keep mine company.
Looks Much More Expensive Than it Is.
Another reviewer reported that the silver is not uniformly shiny. This is true. The top side of the flower petals has some darker color which, in my opinion, allows one to better see and appreciate the detail. The ring is very attractive and certainly looks much more expensive than it is. My wife has a big job interview on Monday, and she says she is looking forward to wearing this ring to that interview. She is very good at what she does, and I'm not saying this ring will affect the interviewers' perceptions but, if it makes her feel a bit more confident, it cannot hurt!
