The birds resemble a mother and her chick, with the former feeding her young. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHorn craft is a unique traditional art form produced using animal horns, such as cattle or buffalo horns, which are heated, carved, and shaped into decorative and utilitarian artifacts. Originally originating in Paralakhemundi, Odisha, the craft later flourished in other regions of the Indian subcontinent, including Bengal, Kerala, and Uttar Pradesh. Specialized polishing techniques help accentuate the deep black shades of the material, resulting in a smooth, glossy surface. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis sculptural work depicts two birds resting upon a stylized tree structure. The mother bird perches on the upper section, while her chick is positioned on an extended lower branch, creating a fluid visual rhythm. A sense of animation fills their contours as their beaks open—the mother lovingly feeding a grain of food to her baby, who opens its beak wide to receive it. Despite the stylized rigidity of their forms, the birds convey a lively energy. Their heads are smoothly carved, transitioning into broad body profiles and slender, subtly curved tails. Positioned at rest, their wings are detailed with fine incised lines to represent plumage, while their thin, elongated legs are fitted securely into pre-drilled holes along the trunk and branch. Their eyes are rendered with realistic, sculpted detail. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile the tree trunk and branches are sculpted in a rich, glossy black shade, the birds themselves are carved from translucent, cream-colored horn, capturing light and imparting a natural luminosity that creates a striking visual contrast against the dark wood-like base.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Horn Craft Dealer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67964900638934,"sku":null,"price":3000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1194\/1498\/files\/1._Mother_and_Baby_Bird_in_Horn_Craft_by_Horn_Craft_Dealer.jpg?v=1794467132","url":"https:\/\/www.memeraki.com\/products\/mother-and-baby-bird-in-horn-craft-by-horn-craft-dealer","provider":"Memeraki Retail and Tech Pvt Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
