Masterpiece Carving! Museum quality Sculpture!

The magnificence of this piece is in its simplicity.

Carved in the modern style, this enchanting bird sits on the ground staring at the sky.

This Etungat goose is exquisite. 

For me, the focus of this piece are the lines and the colour of the stone.

But it is the bird's eyes that melt my heart.

Using a simple etched circle to define the eye, Etungat has magically given our Curious with Wonder innocence, pathos and a sense of the Divine.

I fell for this creature within seconds.

Have you?
