A Hand-Carved Sculpture is a work of art created by an artist using hand tools and techniques. Unlike mass-produced sculptures, these are one-of-a-kind pieces that bear the mark of the artist’s skill and vision. Common materials include wood, stone, and even bone. The artist removes material from the chosen medium to reveal a figure, form, or abstract design. Hand-carved sculptures can be incredibly detailed and realistic, or explore more modern and minimalist styles. They are valued for their craftsmanship, beauty, and connection to the artistic process.
