Pointed ears, enormous fangs between which its tongue curls out to touch its throat, hatching and diagonal mouldings are all beautifully modelled. The late 8th century artefact, found in London, carries a runic inscription which to date has defied translation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a British Museum collaboration piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: 16007\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 18.5cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollection: British Museum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wash in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry immediately with a soft flannel.
