Shy Lady Sculpture – Hand Carved Shona Green Serpentine from Zimbabwe
Express quiet beauty and gentle humility with the Shy Lady Sculpture, hand carved by Shona artisans in Zimbabwe from natural green serpentine stone. Depicted kneeling with her hands resting between her thighs and her head softly bowed, the figure conveys introspection, modesty, and grace—values deeply respected in Shona culture.
Shona sculpture is one of Africa’s most celebrated art traditions, practiced for nearly a thousand years. While rooted in ancient techniques, today’s carvings blend timeless symbolism with contemporary elegance. The smooth green serpentine enhances the sculpture’s serene presence, making it a meaningful addition to any home, meditation space, or art collection.
