Description from the seller
This is a bronze statue of a genuine male Western Lowland Gorilla skull in true life size (1:1). This skull has been designed by Jake Richmond as part of the Sooka Collective. The sculpture is signed on the bottom. The Gorilla skull is part of Sooka’s ‘The Eternity of Remarkable Species’ collection where Sooka’s designers capture the astonishing beauty of endangered animals in a static state. Well aware of the direct impact of mankind on the environment they create respectful alternatives to the authentic vulnerable species, such as gorillas. Just as enchanting but less of an impact. The statue has been polished to give it a brown glow.

Seller's Story
For over a decade, we have travelled across Indonesia to curate unique interior pieces that reflect the country’s rich craftsmanship and cultural heritage. What began as annual trips to Indonesia, a family history descendant of Dutch Indies, and a passion for handmade objects has grown into the rich collection of design objects we offer today with pride.
We specialise in sourcing authentic, artisanal pieces directly from small family-owned ateliers throughout Java, Bali, Sumatra and beyond. Our collection ranges from hand-carved décor and bronze sculptures to natural-material homeware. Each item is carefully selected for its craftsmanship, character, and story.
We have over 10 years of experience working closely with Indonesian artisans. Because of this, our expertise lies in identifying high-quality workmanship, natural materials, and unique pieces that stand out. Every lot we list on Catawiki is personally inspected by us and supports the local communities and traditional techniques we deeply believe in.
