Hand Carved Two Stone Hornbills

Size 30cm Tall by 13cm Wide at the widest point.

In many African cultures, hornbills are symbols of loyalty, protection, and familial bonds. They are often featured in art to represent these themes, making the sculpture not just a decorative piece but also a meaningful cultural artefact.

The depiction of the smaller hornbill pressed against the larger one's chest evokes a sense of tenderness and protection, suggesting themes of family, care, and unity. This emotional resonance adds depth to the sculpture, making it a cherished piece for both its artistic and symbolic value.


Been repaired but hardly noticeable, please see the images as they form part of the description.
