MOTHER AND FOAL
SIZE: LARGE
ARTIST: TAURAI MAISIRI
These stunning horses are exquisitely hand-carved from a single piece of SPRINGSTONE by 1st Generation SHONA artist, TAURAI MAISIRI.
This extremely talented artist has been commissioned by dignatories the world over and for anyone fortunate enough to see one of his pieces, it's easy to see why.
Beautifully detailed and a 'must have' for anyone with equestrian interests.
Would look stunning in any home or garden setting.
Shona sculpture is an art form passed down through generations. It carries with it the heritage and stories of the Zimbabwean people, where the secrets of the craft are transmitted from one generation to the next, safeguarding ancestral knowledge and techniques that have been refined over centuries.
Springstone is an exceptionally hard rock with a high iron content and no cleavages. It is extremely dense which allows the sculpture to be polished to a high shine. Although there are several mines containing this stone, the majority is mined in the north of Zimbabwe, in an area called Guruve.
Beautiful rich, deep colour to this piece.
A unique and original gift.
