Original Handmade OOAK Sculpture – Nkisi Nail Fetish Dog 🌟

It symbolizes the eternal balance of Logic, Love, and Lust — a striking fusion of cultural heritage and modern artistic expression.

Handcrafted with care using premium polymer clay, real metal nails, and vibrant acrylic paint. The expressive two-tone body features a deep red head and legs contrasting with a textured silver-white torso, creating a dramatic, weathered effect. Dozens of nails are thoughtfully embedded along the back, evoking the ritual power of traditional nkisi figures while adding a bold, tactile edge.
