The wood is characterized by its distinctive black-brown grain, which gives the work of art a unique and decorative look. with a height of 31 cm and a weight of around 2.3 kg, the sculpture has an impressive presence.

Macassar ebony is known for its hardness and density, making it a preferred material for high-quality carvings and art objects. The wood's fine texture and almost metallic-smooth surface allow artists to create detailed and precise work. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
