image and video description:
A ceramic sculpture and rattle of a nubby horned, giraffe-necked standing creature. Pale blue stripes against a black body run down from face to torso, breaking down into spots by its legs. A white belly and throat give way to large, alert eyes. The second ceramic sculpture and rattle is of a standing rhinoceros. The folds and bumps of its black skin are lined in red. Thin strands of nichrome wire is placed at the tips of the ears and throat give a hint at the appearance of a sumatran rhino. It also shares the quality of attentive eyes like the previous sculpture.

Two mammal shaped ceramic rattles with large, peering eyes. One is larger, with a white body, its back also serving as a shallow, pink trinket dish with a gold lustre star in the centre. Its head is also pink and blue flowers are illustrated on its side, with blue banding on its neck and tail. The smaller one is black and white striped with a red flowering plant illustrated on its back. Gold lustre accents are applied to both.
The same piece on display at the Met in Oct 2020 & Jan 2023. Used to be incorrectly identified as “Alligator Rattle” but now correctly as “Crocodile Whistle and Rattle.” Yay for progress!
