Hand-carved stone animal figurines

These items are hand-carved stone figurines, specifically depicting African wildlife such as an elephant and a rhinoceros. This style of sculpture, often made from serpentine stone, verdite, or soapstone, is a traditional handicraft strongly associated with Zimbabwean art. Each piece is unique, carved by independent artisans rather than mass-produced in a factory.

Because these are folk art pieces, they do not have a corporate brand or a single ultimate owner. They are typically sold through local cooperatives, craft markets, or international fair-trade distributors that support individual stone carvers in Southern Africa. The manufacturing process is entirely manual, using traditional chiseling and polishing techniques.
