Made of resin and adorned with marbles and rope, this gaudy, decorative mid-century wall piece spoke to me. Notice the two tiny mice running along the strings.

This is fantastic!! When I saw your title I thought how on earth could a lute actually look Mid Century Modern? But the crushed resin and and marbles really do it. The rope looks like painted wrought iron and the mice running down the strings is a crowning touch. I would’ve bought this for sure if I’d seen it.
How deep is the piece? Like only three quarters of an inch thick?

The piece is really not much thicker than 1/4″.
