Ironwood Representing the creative culture of the Sonoran American Indians, these superb sculptures of the world's best-loved wildlife creatures have been hand-carved from Ironwood (Olneya Tesota). In ancient tribal tradition,
each sculpture is fashioned with crude tools. Inspired by the virgin piece of
wood, the craftsman uses machetes and hatchets, creating and
adding finer detail. Women and children gather together for the final
sanding and polishing as a beautiful work of art emerges. No piece is like another, each reflecting an astonishing individuality and beauty, capturing the wonderful forms of nature. Limited by their unique quality, these are truly the antiques of the future, making them a perfect choice for the collector.
