Precious Horned Owlet

By Ray Tsalate

Animal: Owl, Material: Antler
This offering is sold.

Horned Owls live in many places in New Mexico including the flat landscapes. Distinctive feather tufts on their heads provide a sound-reflecting surface contributing to good hearing and they also help raptors appear bigger to predators. Ray Tsalate's pen shell in gold lip shell-eyed horned owlet has been carved from antler with exquisite burnishing. We love how the wings form a heart shape. A tiny perhaps pen shell or black lip shell beak has a lovely iridescence. About 1 3/8" tall, 1" wide and 3/4" deep.
