Shona Stone & Metal Bird Sculptures | Handcrafted African Art

This collection features Shona stone and metal bird sculptures handcrafted by skilled artisans in Zimbabwe, Southern Africa. These unique works of African art combine traditional stone carving with metal elements, reflecting the evolving creativity of Shona sculpture while honoring time-honored techniques.

Birds such as owls, pelicans, and other avian forms are portrayed in both abstract and figurative styles, symbolizing wisdom, freedom, protection, vision, and grace. Natural stone—such as serpentine or red jasper—is paired with metal accents to create contrast, texture, and movement. Each sculpture is ethically and sustainably handmade, and due to the mixed-media process, every piece is truly one of a kind.

These sculptures make meaningful décor accents and thoughtful gifts for collectors and lovers of African art.
