African Snake in the Box - Hand Carved Stone Figurine

Hand-carved in soapstone by South African artisans. This small trick snake box is a unique addition to any collection. It features a hand-carved viper concealed within a distinctively crafted soapstone box decorated in striking colors of terracotta, with black and white symbols and elephants. The cultural significance of the African craftsmanship shines through in the intricate details and careful carving. The playful surprise trick snake attack occurs when the sliding lid is pulled back and the viper springs out for a (harmless) ‘bite’. It's a collectible curio, conversation piece and cultural keepsake all in one. Dimensions: 1 7/8” W x 1 3/8”“ D x 2 1/4“H
