Proud Woman - One of a kind sculpture

Sale price$390.00
SKU: IS0514-15

A wonderful example of a fresh, modern take on the human form. Hand carved in Zimbabwe from beautiful stone, this is truly a one of a kind! The Shona tribe of Zimbabwe, literally translated as "the house of stone," are considered by many to be among the world's finest sculptors. Modern Shona artisans select and quarry their own stones, just as they did thousands of years ago. Statues are hand-carved using simple chisels, polished with sand and beeswax, and heated on a fire to bring out their brilliant colors.

Stone Carvers of Zimbabwe

📍Zimbabwe

" Life re-imagined through stone"

Zimbabwe’s stone sculpture tradition is internationally renowned for its expressive forms, masterful craftsmanship, and deep connection to the natural world. We work with talented stone sculptors across the country—both established and emerging artists—who transform locally sourced serpentine, springstone, and opal stone into striking handcrafted works of art. Drawing inspiration from wildlife, family, spirituality, and everyday life, each sculpture reflects the unique vision of its maker while honoring Zimbabwe’s rich sculptural heritage.

Many of these artists are part of multi-generational carving traditions, passing techniques and creative knowledge from one generation to the next. Every piece is shaped and finished by hand, revealing the beauty and individuality of the natural stone itself.
