About Secret Keeper
Secret Keeper is a one-of-a-kind leopard rock sculpture hand-carved by Walter Mariga, one of the Zimbabwean sculptors represented by ZimCarving. It measures 31 × 17 × 22 cm and weighs 6.4 kg.
Leopard rock takes its name from its spotted markings, so the surface of each piece carries its own natural pattern. Like every piece in our collection, this sculpture was shaped with chisels, rasps and files, then sanded, heated and waxed by hand, so no two sculptures are ever the same.
