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!
Gorgeous color!
I didn?t get a full notion from the pictures of how beautiful this was going to be. The colors are vibrant and stand out on the background. I doubt that I would put this on the floor though ? I?ve got animals and I?m always tracking in from the yard. There is a backing that will make it easy to turn into a wall hanging. For now I have it on the back of a chair. This was a gift, and, though I did pick it out myself, I think anybody who likes nature themes would be pleased with it
