Hammerhead Shark School (5 Sharks) 11in Tall Airbrushed on Burlwood

Hammerhead Sharks are perhaps the most bizarre yet elegant of the sharks. Their extraordinarily widened heads are thought to house organs of smell that, because of their distance apart, provide stereoscopic “smellivision,” enabling it to not only detect food at a great distance, but also to ascertain in which direction it lies.

PLEASE NOTE these pictures are of sample pieces. Each burl is unique so the one you receive will be different but beautiful in its own way.

Each shark is about 6 inches long. Including its polished burlwood base, the piece stands about 9 inches tall and 13 inches at its widest point.

The sharks are molded from Pellucida, a resin compound developed by the artist that resembles but is more durable than Bisque porcelain. They are then airbrushed.

It is SIGNED and comes with a CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY.

BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THIS ITEM especially if it is being shipped long distance we may ship it DISASSEMBLED. Assembly is quite easy.

OVERSEAS CUSTOMERS please note additional import duty and taxes may be due on arrival and, sorry, we cannot mark as a gift in order to avoid these costs.
