This exquisite giraffe sculpture is meticulously handcrafted from a single piece of serpentine stone, originating from Zimbabwe. The natural white lines and base represent the unpolished sections of the stone, while the brown portions are expertly polished using a specialized floor wax. The creation process begins with shaping the stone, employing various tools such as chisels, rasps (files), and occasionally a grinder. Initially, the stone possesses a greyish/whitish hue. To achieve a smooth texture, the sculpture undergoes a meticulous sanding process, gradually progressing from rough to fine-grit sandpaper. Each grit is utilized until the stone attains a remarkably polished surface. Subsequently, the sculpture is cleansed, heated through methods like fire or a blow torch, and coated with floor wax while hot, often with the aid of a brush. As the hot wax seeps into the stone, it merges with its surface. Upon cooling, the polished areas are meticulously buffed with a cloth, resulting in a darkened appearance. The artist then employs a sharp metal tool to etch intricate patterns on the polished sections, effectively removing the wax coating to reveal the desired design. The base remains unpolished, with only excess wax melted from the feet carefully removed for a clean finish. Similarly, the tree retains its unpolished state and is refined during the final stages of the process
