A pocket-sized piece of history, this small stone fragment was once part of the architectural fabric of a traditional Indian home. Carved in the shape of a stylized Peacock or mythical bird, it features the characteristic curved neck and beak motif. The stone wears a heavy, centuries-old patina with traces of mineral deposits and weathering that give it a wonderful, tactile texture. At just 5 inches tall, it is a humble yet resilient artifact that celebrates the stone carver's craft. Lay it flat on a coffee table as a tactile object. It brings a touch of "Modern Farmhouse" or boho charm. It also looks fantastic mounted as wall art.
