Kisii soapstone is one of the most well-known artforms from East Africa. A hand-carved piece of art from the Kisii region of Kenya is a real treasure. Soapstone is mined from the Tabaka Hills and then carved by talented artisans into many designs that are beautiful and some functional. As it is crafted, it goes through multiple stages of sanding and waxing which gives the soapstone a satiny finish. The natural stone will range in color from cream to pink to grey. This cute mushroom box is perfect for a keepsake or small jewelry. The carved stalk is natural stone with a purple cap featuring etched dots. Just adorable! Product Features: * Measures: approximately 3 inches wide and 4 inches tall.
