Bust of an indigenous woman with a gift bowl made of bamboo agate – smoke-fired & natural materials – primitive art – Item No.: SKU097

The sculpture, measuring 13x14x11cm and weighing 1.7kg, arrives securely packaged in recycled cushioning material.

This expressive bust depicts an elderly indigenous woman – a symbol of wisdom, connection to the earth, and the dignity of lived experience. With closed eyes and a serene presence, she radiates stillness and strength. On her head, she wears a small bamboo agate bowl, which can be used as an offering bowl or a tealight holder – depending on what you wish to entrust to her.

The figure is hand-shaped from clay and fired using the traditional smoke-firing technique. Each surface bears the unique marks of fire and smoke. Her earrings are made of African pine and stone beads – a thoughtful detail that underscores her connection to nature and culture.

A special piece for people who seek a connection to depth, nature, and the spiritual.

Note: Due to the smoke firing process, color nuances and ash patterns vary – each sculpture is unique and carries the story of the fire within it.

I am happy to implement commissioned work or my own ideas for a specific piece of work, provided it is compatible with my way of working.
