A Christmas tree cut from solid mango wood, its stepped silhouette sharp at the edges and warm in the grain, mounted on a small square base. The dark finish brings out the figure in the wood. Made in India, where hand-carving decorative forms from mango is a well-established workshop trade. Small enough for a windowsill, a shelf, or tucked into an advent arrangement.
Grain and tone vary between pieces.
