Soapstone Miniature African Animal Set

This is a lovely set of small soapstone safari animals in different colours. In the set we have a Rhino, Zebra, Hippo and Elephant. The process of creating a set like this involves the mining, moulding, polishing and painting of the stone by hand. The smaller the pieces the harder the process.
