Description

Celebrated as the spirit of freedom and the official national emblem of Zimbabwe, the Hungwe – or African Fish Eagle – is a revered symbol of strength, resilience, and ancestral watchfulness. This stylized interpretation captures the elegance of the majestic bird in a single sweeping motion. Carved from verdant green opal stone with a lightly polished finish, the sculpture presents a gentle curvature through the body and a distinctive upward-facing beak, as if in mid-cry or surveying the sky.

Crafted by skilled Shona artisans, Hungwe stands as a contemporary homage to traditional totems and Zimbabwean folklore, echoing themes of protection, legacy, and natural harmony. Its compact yet powerful stature makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor spaces, adding significance, cultural depth, and artistic sophistication wherever it is placed.

This piece is a standout from the Great Zimbabwe Collection, which honors sacred symbols from Zimbabwe’s cultural and historic heartland.
