Statue Speksteen Cross in rough stone 13cm
Description
Looking for a special religious or spiritual symbol with a natural look? This handmade soapstone (serpentine) figurine from Zimbabwe is a beautiful piece of art centered on the cross. The sculpture was crafted from a single piece of stone with great patience and skill, with the artist respecting the natural forms of the stone.
What makes this model unique is the strong contrast in the finish. The cross in the center is carefully sanded and polished until it turns a deep dark gray to black and shines beautifully. Instead, the framing is left rough, leaving the original texture and earth tones of the stone – ranging from gray to rusty brown – visible. This gives it a robust but serene look.
Because serpentine is a natural stone from Central Africa, no two sculptures are identical. Each piece of raw stone has its own whimsical shape and hue. Please note that due to handwork and natural material, the sizes (approximately 13 cm high), shape of the frame and specific colors may differ from the photo. You are truly bringing a unique piece into your home with this.

This handcrafted figurine from Zimbabwe depicts a polished soapstone cross embraced by a frame of rough, raw stone. The artwork is made from a single piece of serpentine, with the contrast between the deep, glossy dark gray of the cross and the jagged, matte texture of the outer edge creating a unique look. Because it is a natural product, each one is approximately 13 cm high and slightly different in shape and color.
