AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Seven monks originating from China.
Boxwood is extremely fine and dense, allowing such detailed carving (see the folds in the robe and the facial expression)
The homogeneous texture with no visible grain makes it ideal for small sculptures with fine details
The flowing lines and soft curves show the workability of boxwood despite its hardness
The smooth finish without cracks or splinters illustrates the stability of the material
The fine details (face, hands, robe folds) are only possible due to the fine grain
