The Shona Stone African Hippo Collection features hand carved hippopotamus sculptures created by skilled Shona artisans in Zimbabwe. Sculpted from natural stones such as serpentine and springstone, each piece captures the hippo’s distinctive form—powerful, grounded, and calm—through expressive carving and rich stone textures.
In African symbolism, the hippopotamus represents strength, protection, stability, and balance, embodying both gentleness and power. These qualities are reflected in the solid presence and lifelike details of each sculpture. Rooted in a stone-carving tradition practiced for nearly a thousand years, Shona hippo sculptures blend cultural heritage with contemporary artistry.
Every sculpture in this collection is ethically handcrafted and entirely unique. Natural variations in color, pattern, and texture are part of the stone’s character and enhance the individuality of each piece. Ideal for collectors of African wildlife art or as meaningful décor, these hippo sculptures offer lasting beauty and symbolic significance.
