Wood sculpture, 'Inspirational Message'





By mb
Reminder to Pray
This sculpture is unusual, beautiful and a calm reminder to pray about things which are out of our control. I recently sent one as a gift to my sister who has a terminal diagnosis. She placed in a prominent place in her home to remind her that God is always with her.
Wood sculpture, 'Entwined Giraffes'





By Caroline
Elegant and touching
The giraffes are sweet while looking dignified. The stain is a rich brown, the carving is well done, and its solid without being heavy. A romantic gift for some one who likes giraffes.
