Original Wood Sculpture Statue of Female, Barbados

Click the photo above for a larger version and more pictures

 

Purchased from a local artisan who set up shop on one of the many piers in the harbor.  I believe this was carved from Barbados Mahagony (swietenia mahogany), a tropical wood well known in the cabinetry industry.  In original condition except for an aging crack. 

A  light black stain was either rubbed into the wood or applied.
