Stone sculpture of family, children, relatives and friends
The sculpture you buy is made from genuine soapstone from nature in Zimbabwe by artists who put their creativity into the stone sculpture of a family, relatives or friends. The shapes of the soapstone sculpture of a family or relatives are different for each stone sculpture. These shapes differ because each stone from nature that the sculpture process begins with has a different shape, therefore, each family statue of soapstone will have a different shape. In addition, each family statue stone will also show its own colours, because each stone is different, all stone statues will have a different deep colour. Admire these unique features of each stone statue and find your most beautiful one. Perhaps the statue has a special meaning for you, which will be revealed by the characteristic properties of the stone and the statue.
Method of processing stone types into stone art and sculptures
The statues are made of natural stone with the greatest possible care. The smaller sculptures are made of soapstone; this stone is not suitable for outdoor use. The larger sculptures are usually made of opalstone, springstone, cobaltstone or fruit serpentine. This is a harder stone and suitable for outdoor use.
The stone may contain irregularities such as veins and lines. These irregularities give the sculpture extra charm and a unique character. 
The stone is worked in various stages with a hammer and chisel, rasp and file. Once the rough shape has been created, the stone is polished with waterproof sandpaper until it is completely smooth. After polishing, the sculpture is heated and a layer of wax is applied. When the sculpture has cooled down again, it is polished and gets its full colour and shine. The sculpture is ready.
