This elegant hand-carved soapstone bird sculpture by B. Wilson reflects a modernist interpretation of avian form. With clean, flowing lines and a minimalist shape, the sculpture captures the essence of a bird with an understated yet expressive style. Carved from deep black stone—likely soapstone (steatite)—the surface has been polished to a smooth, semi-gloss finish.
