A Christmas tree cut from solid mango wood, its stepped silhouette sharp at the edges and warm in the grain, mounted on a square base. The dark finish brings out the figure in the wood, including any knots or natural markings. Made in India, where hand-carving decorative forms from mango is a well-established workshop trade. At this size it makes a proper statement on a sideboard or mantelpiece, and sits well grouped with the smaller versions.
Grain, tone, and natural markings vary between pieces.
