Description: 7¾" tall x 3¼". From Tanzania. This piece stands firm. A very good value for the low price. Due to diminishing wood, especially Ebony, prices are quickly going up in Africa. "Tree of Life" is the romantasized version of village unity. If you expect your ebony to be solid black, do not buy this piece. There are a lot of carvings with black shoe polish for the tourists. The tan on the outer edges is how ebony is. My art is the real thing. A rationalization - On wood conservation in Southern Africa. A piece of Ebony like this will last "forever". If not carved into art this piece of Ebony would have been turned into charcoal (gone forever). They will cut any and all available wood to cook with (majority still cook with wood) or will make into charcoal - a huge rural industry. Truckers buy bags of charcoal along the road in rural areas to re-sell in the city. Ebony is getting scarce for this reason, Art Room Blue
