**Church Mouse – Asleep on Cheese
Handmade Figurine by Oakapple Designs**
This delightful figure forms part of the exclusive Church Mouse collection, designed and produced by Oakapple Designs in the UK.
The Asleep on Cheese mouse depicts a small church mouse who has discovered an ample piece of cheese and, having eaten his fill, has curled up and fallen fast asleep. The figure captures a moment of gentle humour and contentment, echoing the quiet storytelling often found in historic church carvings and misericords.
Design & Making
The original mouse was hand carved exclusively for Oakapple Designs by a master carver. From this original carving, a mould was taken, allowing each reproduction to retain the depth, texture, and character of the hand-carved original.
Each piece is:
Cast by hand in a specialist resin composite
Carefully hand-finished and stained
Made in the United Kingdom
Minor variations in finish are a natural result of the handmade process and give each mouse its own individuality.
The Church Mouse Collection
Inspired by the old saying “poor as a church mouse”, this popular collection celebrates the quiet humour, warmth, and human observation traditionally found in churches and cathedrals. Each mouse is designed as a decorative and collectable character piece.
Product Details
This piece works beautifully as a decorative ornament and makes a thoughtful gift for collectors, church visitors, and those who appreciate handcrafted British design.
