The Tiger of Mysore: Tipu’s Mortar Miniature (3-Inch)
Tipu Sultan’s ordnance was as much a work of art as it was a weapon of war. Our 3-inch miniature is an exact replica of the iconic tiger-headed mortar, capturing the powerful stance and the snarling, wide-open jaws of the tiger that served as the Sultan's personal emblem.
At Shrinkray Studio, we’ve poured hours into research and sculpting to ensure that every curve of the tiger's body and the intricate floral motifs on the barrel are preserved in high-fidelity detail.
