Description from the seller
Lot of 6 Hand-Carved Natural Stone Animal Figurines - Pakistan Onyx, Yellow Calcite & Serpentine Jade
A beautiful and diverse collection of 6 miniature animal sculptures, hand-carved from various natural semi-precious stones. This "pocket zoo" features unique geological patterns and vibrant colors, making it a perfect decorative set for a desk, bookshelf, or a spiritual altar.
1. **Large Elephant (Left):** Carved from authentic Pakistan Green Onyx. Features stunning translucent green layers contrasted with deep amber and brown veins.
2. **Stylized Elephant (Right):** Crafted from Yellow/Orange Calcite or Banded Onyx, showing clear horizontal sedimentary layers.
3. **Small Cat:** A charming miniature with a honey-yellow body and a darker contrasting head, likely carved from yellow jade or calcite.
4. **Detailed Sea Turtle:** Made from dark Serpentine or Soapstone, featuring intricate hand-engraved patterns on the shell.
5. **Two Baby Turtles:** Miniature companions carved from yellow-banded stone, symbolizing longevity and peace.

**Material:** Green Onyx, Yellow Calcite, Serpentine Jade.
