Welcome! When you consider an art acquisition, the golden rule is buy what you like and enjoy. I have created these hand carved marble portrait busts for collectors who appreciate western art and like to surround themselves with what is unique, original and beautiful. These busts are hand carved true to life portrait sculptures of real native people. Each piece is an original, and destined to become a favored heirloom for anyone who enjoys the history of these great Native Nations. Carved in a scale suited to the outdoors, they look great in grand interior spaces as well. The smoke white solid natural marble is not without impurities which adds interest in very subtle ways you will come to appreciate. Set upon the beautiful black/charcoal marble pedestal I designed specifically for these busts, they reach to seven feet tall and make an impressive statement to all who look upon them. Please contact me directly to secure your piece of history.
Thank you! Doug Bieniek (non-native)

Each marble bust is about 30" wide X 30" tall (not including the feather) X 16" deep. The feather adds about 15" to the height. They weigh in the range of 400 lbs. I chose smoke white marble because of the fine nature of this stone which is perfect for both subtle and fine detail. The result is a superior life like sculpture which is intended to convey the strength and dignity of the individual represented rather than be usurped by the nature of the stone.
