Dating stylistically from the 3rd to 1st century BCE, it features a stylized human face with arched brows, a straight nose, and tight lips — typical of Sabaean ritual effigies. Entirely shaped and aged by hand, its natural patina imitates centuries of erosion, giving the piece the appearance of an archaeological find. Mounted on a matte black base, this compact sculpture is ideal for consoles, shelves, or display cabinets. Though unsigned, it is crafted by specialist artisans using traditional methods. The Arcades model is perfect for collectors or interior designers seeking a timeless, symbolic object. It remains in excellent condition and offers a strong visual presence in both ethnic and contemporary settings. See less
