Large Vintage Red Kisii Soapstone Box Abstract Linear Etched Kenya 6 Inch

This large-scale decorative box grabs your attention with a bright bold high-contrast design. Hand-carved from substantial Kisii soapstone in Kenya, the piece features a deep saturated red finish overlaid with black sgraffito etching. The motif consists of horizontal rows of organic, elongated black shapes, giving the item a distinct visual texture.

​Weighing nearly four pounds, this is a dense and heavy object that functions well as a stable desktop container or a standalone sculptural accent. The interior is unlined and showcases the natural matte grey surface of the raw stone.
