Basalt Carving of Hand ...
Basalt Carving of Hand This polished Basalt sculpture depicts a human hand whose palm transforms into a stylized feline or jaguar head. The animal's rounded ears, almond-shaped eyes, open mouth, and prominent teeth give the carving a bold, protective character. Incised decoration on the back of the hand features a human figure surrounded by elegant scrollwork. The deep black stone and lustrous finish emphasize the sculpture's flowing contours and unusual blend of human and animal imagery. Measurements: 5.8 x 3.4 x 1.8 inches (14.7 x 8.6 x 4.57 cm) HID09710052018 © 2026 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved www.HA.com/TexasAuctioneerLicenseNotice
