"Heirloom quality wood art!"
My husband never likes anything I buy; Im not kidding. But when I showed him this gorgeous hand-made sculpture, with all its color and details and wood grain, he flipped! He put it where we can both see it all evening every day, and he constantly remarks how much he loves it! Its my favorite Novica purchase yet! John Barrow is an amazingly gifted artist, and Im grateful he shares his gift with the world via Novica!
Best Uses
- Joyful, restful, invigorating

"So happy that I found this piece on Novica!"
We visited Peru in September 2018 and I saw these exquisite wood sculptures in real life, first in a store in Lima and later at the airport when we were flying out. They are all absolutely amazing, but this one caught our eye and we wanted so much to buy it, but unfortunately there was no room left in our luggage (we traveled with backpacks only). So first thing when I got home I started looking for it on the internet. Novica was the only site where I was lucky enough to find it, so I ordered it immediately; it was shipped very fast and safe via DHL and it reached me in Romania in only a few days. I cant describe my feeling when I opened the package and realized that I finally get to have this amazing piece in my home. Many thanks to Novica and to the author, I admire all his pieces, they are absolutely amazing! P.S. I cant wait to surprise my husband with it for Christmas, he will be so happy :) He was so disappointed that we could not get it while we were in Peru.

"Such a beautiful wood carving!"
I cannot begin to say how beautiful this is! Several different shades of wood, highly polished and lifelike. It is quite a large piece and it looks beautiful in my living room. I have 3 dachshunds and this piece is so accurate! I highly recommend this sculpture!
