Vintage Hand Carved Stone Rhinoceros Sculpture – Banded Serpentine Marble Rhino Figurine 12” Natural Stone Decor

Vintage Hand Carved Stone Rhinoceros Sculpture – Banded Serpentine Marble Rhino Figurine 12” Natural Stone Decor

$279.00 USD

Make a bold statement with this vintage hand-carved stone rhinoceros sculpture, crafted from beautifully banded natural stone with subtle veining and mineral inclusions. The solid form and forward stance capture the strength and presence of this iconic animal, making it a standout decorative piece.

Carved from what appears to be serpentine or marble with natural calcite inclusions, portions of the stone display a unique UV-reactive quality—adding an unexpected and interesting detail under blacklight. The polished finish enhances the natural movement in the stone, giving the piece depth and character from every angle.

Likely produced in the late 20th century as part of the global export art market, larger carvings like this remain highly collectible for their weight, craftsmanship, and natural material.
