Ephraim Chaurika

Sculptor

The horse’s arched neck signifies its pride in its appearance, it is showing off, demonstrating its strength.

Ephraim is a senior sculptor. He is best known for his lovely quirky sculptures of horses. This piece is a supreme example of his quintessential style.

It would make a super focal point for a garden, as it is an impressive size and is interesting from every angle.

The grey base of the sculpture is the same piece of stone as the top shiny black part. That is, it is all made from one contiguous piece of stone, just finished with different techniques.

Springstone is a hard variety of serpentine stone. It is suitable for outdoor display, as it is dense and impermeable and has very few flaws that might be exacerbated by frost action.

This sculpture is in Zimbabwe and will be shipped from there; P&P at  buyer’s expense. If you’d like a shipping quote, please contact us giving your nearest airport and sea port.

Please note overseas shipping is from Zimbabwe as cargo. From there, you will need a clearing agent to do customs clearance and arrange onward haulage to your delivery address. This isn’t as complicated as it might sound, and using an agent is definitely better than trying to do it yourself.
