Executed by Horn Craft Dealer, this sculptural work belongs to the traditional horn craft lineage of Odisha. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHorn craft is a specialized art form utilizing shed or reclaimed animal horns, predominantly cattle and buffalo, which are softened through heating, carved, and polished into decorative and utilitarian artifacts. Historically originating in Paralakhemundi, Odisha, the craft subsequently spread to other regions of the Indian subcontinent, including Bengal, Kerala, and Uttar Pradesh. The meticulous polishing techniques bring out the naturally deep black tones of the horn, imparting a smooth, glossy surface finish. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis evocative composition features a mother crane and her chick perched atop a tall, gracefully curved, multi-tiered pedestal. The two figures stand in close proximity on long, slender legs, with the mother rendered significantly taller than her young. Standing with one leg crossed, the chick opens its beak wide as the mother leans over from behind to feed it. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe birds’ heads are carved with soft, fluid contours, enhancing the naturalistic feel of the scene. Their wings are kept closed against their bodies, yet their feather structures are articulated with precise chiseled incisions and clean cuts. The polished horn surface gives the entire sculptural form a lustrous, chromatic finish, highlighting the elegant curves and classic balance of the mother-and-child motif\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Horn Craft Dealer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67964892315862,"sku":null,"price":7500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1194\/1498\/files\/1._Two_Cranes_in_Horn_Craft_by_Horn_Craft_Dealer.jpg?v=1794466976","url":"https:\/\/www.memeraki.com\/products\/two-cranes-in-horn-craft-by-horn-craft-dealer","provider":"Memeraki Retail and Tech Pvt Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
