The Sable and Rabbit rider sculpture, Hand made in South Africa

About the Item

Sable & Rabbit Rider Sculpture Handmade Ceramic – One of a Kind This whimsical ceramic sculpture features a wide-eyed rabbit clutching the curled horns of a graceful sable antelope, riding with joyful abandon. With exaggerated expressions and charming posture, the piece captures the lively and surreal energy that defines the Zimele studio’s playful take on South African wildlife. Hand-sculpted and hand-painted in South Africa, every detail—from the sable’s textured coat to the rabbit’s oversized ears—showcases the artisan’s incredible craftsmanship. This one-of-a-kind piece brings humor, movement, and imagination into any space. Artist Studio: Zimele
