This elephant stands solemn and regal, its majestic stance perfectly captured in this statuette from Rita Addo Zakour. Known as osunu in the Akan language, the elephant sculpture is expertly carved by hand of African sese wood and treated with clay to achieve a rustic appearance.

"great eye for simplicity"
this artist sees the importance of simple yet not missing the detail of structure. this is a gift to a collector of elephant sculptures and my only regret is; when sent to me ; the packer didnt enclose the gift card , which to me is important as a collectors piece. i called novica and said as much but , i still dont know if ill get the card so i can include it with the gift when the time comes for giving. But, i intend to purchase more from this artist in the future she is truly gifted!!
