nice sculpture

This ceramic figurine of the woodpecker its head to the side as if looking for a nice tree to alight on, ready to be posed in your home or patio. Guatemalan artisan Mauricio Morales hand sculpts and hand paints this characteristic bird with meticulous detail to capture the species' likeness. The aluminum wire legs and feet can bend to position the bird to your liking.

Making use of discarded mahogany wood from large factories, woodworking artisan Christian Vasquez carves this detailed pen and holder using methods he has developed since carving his first piece of wood in 1989. The handsome red-brown timber displays nicely under all lighting conditions, with its straight sanded grain, lacquer and varnish finish. The holder can be folded for transport or when not in use. Built to last a lifetime, the pen accepts standard Bic replacement ball-point refills, of which two are included.
