Description from the seller

U are looking at a beautiful "GARNET" skull.
7880 carat

This skull is hand carved and hand polished .
its a super realistic high quality carving.
meaning : very detailed : teeth ,nose , eye sockets , jaws.

Garnet's name comes from the Latin word granatum, meaning "pomegranate," due to its resemblance to the fruit's seeds. Historically, ancient Egyptians and other early civilizations mined and crafted garnets, sourcing them from places like India and Sri Lanka. While historically associated with the area of Bohemia (modern-day Czech Republic) and Russia, garnet is now found globally, with significant deposits in Africa (Tanzania, Namibia), India, Russia, the United States, and other parts of Asia and South America.
