Description

Large Picasso Marble Bison Sculpture – 6" Hand-Carved Stone Art, 927g

A finely carved bison sculpture in richly patterned Picasso marble, displaying dramatic veining in shades of charcoal gray, rust, tan, and cream. The highly polished surface reveals intricate, web-like mineral inclusions that lend a painterly, abstract quality reminiscent of brushstrokes—hence the stone’s name.

This minimalist yet powerful carving captures the strength and enduring spirit of the buffalo, a form long associated with prosperity and resilience in Native and Southwestern art traditions. Weighing an impressive 927 grams, this example offers substantial presence for its size and exceptional polish that highlights the stone’s natural beauty.

An elegant and tactile work of modern stone artistry, ideal for collectors of fine minerals, contemporary carvings, or Southwestern decorative art.

Dimensions: 4" H x 6" W x 1.25" D
Weight: 927 grams
Material: Natural Picasso marble

Condition

Excellent condition with no damage. The surface retains a smooth, high-gloss polish throughout, with natural veining and inclusions intrinsic to the stone. No chips, cracks, or repairs noted.
