Majestic and full of character, this hand-carved Vulture Mobile captures the powerful grace of one of nature’s most striking birds. With its broad wings, sculpted feathers, and proud posture, it brings a sense of wild beauty and quiet dignity to any space.
Each vulture is carved by hand from sustainably sourced South African pine, its natural grain echoing the layered feathers and strength of flight. Painted in soft earth tones and sealed with a protective finish, it moves gently with the air — an elegant reminder of the freedom of the open sky.
Perfect for rustic interiors, creative studios, patios, or covered verandas, this sculptural bird adds personality and movement wherever it hangs. It’s both art and conversation piece — admired for its craftsmanship, humour, and quiet presence.
