Description

This handmade tortoise sculpture, skillfully carved from aromatic hinoki (Japanese cypress) wood, dates back to the 1950s. Its detailed craftsmanship beautifully captures the textured shell, lifelike limbs, and serene expression of the tortoise, reflecting the artisan's mastery. Hinoki wood's natural grain and golden hue enhance the sculpture's warm and earthy appeal, while the wood's durable yet lightweight properties ensure its lasting quality.

In Japanese culture, the tortoise is a symbol of longevity, wisdom, and good fortune, making this piece both a meaningful addition to a collection and a striking standalone display. A timeless creation, it embodies the essence of Japanese woodworking traditions and artistry.
