Soap Stone Carvings

Soapstone carvings, also known as Kissi stone, are a beautiful way to adorn your home with a smooth, eclectic look. Made of soapstone found in western Kenya, the Gusii and Abigusii ethnic groups individually hand carve each of these one of a kind pieces. They first mine the soapstone from the hills around the village of Tabaka and then, using knives or handmade tools, the craftsman individually carve each piece. After the carving the figure is wet sanded and then polished, all by hand. To form the colors they dye the stone and then incise it with the patterns the individual artist desires. Adorn your home with one of these traditional, one of a kind pieces of artwork and display the ingenuity and talent of these traditional African artisans.
