Vintage solid African mahogany sculpture of a Hippopotamus
A fantastic African hardwood, believed mahogany, carved sculpture of a Hippopotamus.
Attractive from every angle, with reddish flecks in the timber and smooth, polished surfaces, this piece is beautifully sculpted capturing every fold in the skin and detail of the beast’s form and yet stylised rather than hyper realistic.
With a friendly smile and curious character, this hippo has a foot raised and is slowly on the move.
A beautifully carved and shaped heavy statuette for the sideboard or desk. Eye catching and imposing, a perfect and impressive collectors piece.
Measures 25.5cm wide X 11.5cm wide X 14.5cm tall.
