Eagle in Flight Bone Sculpture

This dynamic sculpture of our national symbol features a fierce look, raised wings, and an outstretched tail, and is mounted on a carved wooden base. It's a nice treasure to give to the birdwatcher, patriot, or Philadelphia football fan in your life - or to give to yourself! Hand carved in the village of Tampaksiring, Bali.

All of our bone products are carved from cow bone, or in Bali known as water buffalo. In Indonesia, as in other tropical lands, the water buffalo is critical to farmers: it provides milk, it is a "living tractor” that plows rice paddies, and is prized by families. When a water buffalo dies, no part of it is wasted: in addition to providing beef to the family, the bones are cured and then carved by talented craft artists. The delicacy of this work reflects difficult hand skills that are passed from generation to generation. 

Approximately 5.5" L x 2" W x 3.5" D.
