Beautiful Pair of Vintage Hand-Carved African Ebony Wood Busts
A stunning pair of vintage hand-carved solid wood busts, featuring a girl (approx. 15cm) and a boy (approx. 13cm). These are beautifully crafted from a dense, dark hardwood—likely African Ebony—showing a wonderful natural grain and a rich, polished finish.
The girl features an intricate braided hairstyle gathered into a top knot, while the boy has a textured, cropped style. Both pieces are in excellent vintage condition with a lovely weight to them. They include green felt pads on the base to protect your surfaces. Perfect as bookends, shelf decor, or for a collector of global art.
