There is something in his kind face that suggests long years and longer memory. Elder carries the quiet and gentle authority of old growth, carved from reclaimed cottonwood bark collected from a fallen tree on the shores of Grapevine Lake. The bark's natural ridges shape his features. A dry-brush of white pigment brings out the texture, as if age itself has settled into the grain.

One of a Kind
This is not a mass-produced item. Elder was carved from a single piece of reclaimed cottonwood bark. When this piece sells, it is gone. No other carving will have the same grain, expression, or presence. You are buying this carving.
