Beautiful!
These are lovely. The soapstone has natural color gradations, with some lovely touches of pale pink and light grey intermingling with the medium grey that predominates. They are substantial pieces, and the talent and artistry of the sculptor is obvious. The owls are identical in size, but there are individual variations that make it easy to see each is one of a kind. I was also delighted to see that the upright portion on each bookend is actually carved to resemble a book! Delightful!

A beautiful rendition of South American Culture
Francisco's art work is beautiful. He captures the South American culture of every day life in exquisite detail and vivid colors. I have his plate depicting women and their baskets. I have gotten many compliments on this piece. Everyone who sees it is mesmerized by its stunning hues and attention to detail. I'm so glad I purchased this piece
