Blossoming
Artist: Samson Mukohwa
Green Opal from Zimbabwe 

Process:  My client received the sculpture in 2 pieces when it was shipped.  My intention was to keep the piece as the artist intended. Because of the crack & per the clients request we use the Japanese method of Kintsukuroi, (adding gold to cracks in ceramic bowls). I added a base fabricated from Wenga an African hardwood & stained it with an Ebony. I wanted to add stability to the sculpture without taking anything away from the esthetics. The following photos are start to finish.
