This form of Soapstone Carvings dates back to 1000AD and it is not a modern art form as many people think. For the soapstone sculptors of today, just like those centuries before, the crucial part of the sculpting process is enabling the release of the spirits in the stone to a more recognisable form. The soapstone sculptors tend to search for stone which 'speaks' to them. They are releasing an inner masterpiece...Here at Twizzles, we are pleased to have some of these masterpieces on offer to you, in the form of our soapstone families of 3, 4 and 5. The black Shona stone comes from Zimbabwe you can see below they are beautiful examples of soapstone carvings ideal for families at birthdays and Christmas. All of our carvings are fair trade.
