    Description

    Pair of African Folk Art Carved Wood Fish
    Fish measure 9-1/2” and 10” long
    Hand carved ebony or blackwood fish, resembling African cichlids or tilapia.  Meticulously carved with precise incised details.  Both fish have white inlaid eyes that look like bone.  The fish are very heavy for their size and weigh approximately 1-1/4 lbs each.  There are natural flaws in the wood (cracks, dark spots and knots) which are noticeable, but still display nicely together.
    Thanks for visiting!
