Sheep in a Chair belongs to the Allegories series, in which the master craftspeople of Olmart House have imbued animals with human characteristics. Filled with warmth and good humor, these artworks are created in an edition of one.
This work is made of mammoth ivory and finished with ebony wood and gold. The ivory has been perfected using the techniques of burning and toning.
Ebony is the black tree which grows in the humid tropical forests of Africa and Asia, and it belongs to the rarest and the most valuable wood species. Very hard and heavy, drowning in water, it requires special continuous processing, special drying conditions, before it becomes suitable for carving and making artworks.

Olmart House uses only natural gagate with the highest quality characteristics in its products.
Mammoth ivory is a unique material because of its value and properties. Tusks which have been lying for tens of thousands of years in permafrost, are extracted today in just a few regions of our planet. A very small percentage can be kept in a condition suitable for sculpture manufacturing. The Olmart House uses mammoth ivory of superior quality only.
