"A flower whose head follows the sun."

At nearly two metres tall, this is an imposing sculpture that would make a fantastic focal point in a garden, particularly given its floral theme.

Springstone is the local name for a hard variant of serpentine stone. It is a particularly good sculpture medium, as it has a very even internal structure of small grains of rock; it is dense and has very few flaws. It is the favoured medium for Zimbabwe's most famous sculptors.

Springstone is frost-resistant and is suitable for outdoor display.
