About the Item

Hand-sculpted vintage rhinoceros. Dating from around the 1980s. The sculpture is carved in a very heavy and dense exotic wood (not ebony). The surface has been ebonized (originally) to give it a modern, dark and classy look. Meticulously hand-carved with utmost precision, the piece is full of realistic details. On the other hand, its general shape gives it a Botero style. Would make an interesting point in any home.
