Pelican made of onyx

A pelican, handcrafted sculpture made of onyx and blue calcite. The bird sits on a rock crystal base, which presents the figure with clear geometry.

Onyx is a black chalcedony variety with fine banding. In combination with the blue calcite, a high-contrast color composition is created, following the typical pelican look with a light neck and dark body.

The sculptural processing assembles several minerals in precise final assembly. Each component is individually ground and polished before the overall piece is composed, a classic multi-material sculpture mode.
