This Recycled Metal and Stone Parent and Child sculpture is handcrafted by the Shona artisans in Zimbabwe. The sculptor Luke Jimu hand-carves and textures springstone, then combines it with recycled metal to create a serene line of people figures. This stylish sculpture makes a thoughtful gift for the parent in your life.

Most springstone is sustainably sourced and is mined on communal lands for the purpose of sculpting.

YOUR PURCHASE MAKES A DIFFERENCE

This beautiful work of art was purchased directly from the Shona artists in Zimbabwe. We source our handmade Shona products through a small family-run supplier in Harare who has been working with and supporting these talented artists for over 10 years. Your purchases of these products help provide stable employment and basic needs for many dependents at a time when unemployment and inflation in Zimbabwe are at unimaginable levels.

All our products are Fair Trade with the artists either working for themselves or working in co-operatives. The items purchased from our Shona artists support the indigenous tribes of Zimbabwe. We believe that it is now more important than ever to keep supporting these artists during these increasingly difficult times as the ability of these artists to support their families depends on our purchases.
