At an impressive 9 inches tall, they are larger than most examples, offering both visual impact and practical stability on the shelf.
Crafted from cream-toned alabaster with beautiful natural striations, each piece displays subtle variation in tone and pattern, enhancing their organic character. A refined blend of game-inspired form and sculptural design, ideal for a study, library, or layered tabletop vignette.
