Martin, the tag on the back from the auction lists the donor as fishcarvings.com.

Chit, I just looked at her site..... nice stuff. And its copper! Thought it was bronze mold.

I was going to say that it was copper with a patina fnnish.. that was made by hammering a sheet of copper into a wooden form that is the rough shape of the bass, then all of the details are hammered in with different shaped tools... Its called 'chasing' Nice specimen

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
