AFRICAN Panolin Ant Eater Sculpture EBONY Wood CARVING ART Tanzania #2

Description: ± 4¾" tall x 10" long x 1" thick on base. From Tanzania. Ebony is black on the inside and tan on the outside. Pictures show tan line on bottom. Take a razor knife to the bottom and will only get black. This piece stands, but is thin so will be wobbly.. A decent piece of "street art", not "fine art", a very good value for the low price. Due to diminishing wood, prices are quickly going up in Africa. If you expect your ebony to be solid black, do not buy this piece. There are a lot of carvings with black shoe polish for the tourists. "Ebony" is used to describe any and all very dark wood in Africa as the name "increases" the value, there are several very dark woods in Southern Africa, only an expert can tell them apart. My art is the real thing. Will combine for big saving on shipping. A rationalization - On wood conservation in Southern Africa. A piece of Ebony like this will last "forever". If not carved into art this piece of Ebony would have been turned into charcoal (gone forever). They will cut any and all available wood to cook with (majority still cook with wood) or will make into charcoal - a huge rural industry. Truckers buy bags of charcoal along the road in rural areas to re-sell in the city. Ebony is getting scarce for this reason, All wood near a village or town is stripped.
