Sky Snout Sailfish Cocobolo Wood Carving

$54.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

The carver shaped this Sky Snout Sailfish in one tall curve, rising from an oval base with its blunt snout tipped toward the sky and two small fins held out in front. Lines carved at the foot mark the tail fin. Bands of orange and dark brown grain run across the snout and the base, while the body stays a deep, glossy brown.

Cocobolo is a tropical hardwood from the Pacific side of Panama and Central America. It is so dense it sinks in water, and its natural oils polish to a soft, warm shine. Fresh cut, the wood shows orange and red tones with dark streaks; with age the colors deepen, so no two carvings ever look alike.

Each piece is carved by hand in Panama, in the wood carving traditions of the Emberá and Wounaan peoples. Their carvers have long chosen cocobolo for figures of the animals and plants of the rainforest around them.

MolaMagic was founded by Janet Marie Brockman with a simple but powerful mission: to help artisans in Panama share their art with the world. All profits go right back into the artisan community, supporting education, medical care, land, tools, and daily needs. Buying a MolaMagic carving means you are part of that story too.
