Giraffes have the same number of vertebra in their necks as we do... Five, just like all other mammals. "Necking", such as in this sculpture, can be two males fighting or a courtship ritual, dependent on the strength of the impact and the gender of the participants! Bonface specializes in carving giraffes and rhinos. One species having the longest legs in the animal kingdom. The other having those that are short and dumpy, or as the San Diego Zoo calls it's rhinos, "tubby unicorns".
SHIPPING
The Crisson and Hind African Gallery is located in Bermuda and we have been in business since 1999. During that time, we have successfully shipped sculpture to our clients worldwide! We ship by DHL International and we pass on our attractive DHL rate to our customers. We use DHL box rates for our small sculptures and for the larger and heavier sculptures, we build custom wooden crates and this cost would be calculated in the final shipping cost. DHL does not have an automatic shipping rate calculator for items shipping from Bermuda so please contact us through the Request a Quote for Shipping Price form.
