1. Introduction of hippo head sculpture

The common hippopotamus is a large semi-aquatic mammal in Africa, which can weigh between 1,500 and 3,000 kilograms. This hippo head sculpture depicts the image of an ordinary hippo. They are commonly found in freshwater rivers, lakes and swamps in Africa, cooling in the water during the day and coming ashore at night to feed, mainly herbivorous. Hippos have thick skin and secrete a red liquid that helps prevent dryness and infection. Although seemingly bulky, they are extremely fast and aggressive, making them one of the most dangerous animals in Africa and often referred to as “freshwater killers”.

The sculpture is made of copper and features the majestic head of the hippopotamus. The smooth surface of the hippo head sculpture exudes the unique metallic luster of copper, highlighting its exquisite texture and craftsmanship. The hippo’s wide nostrils and thick lips are finely drawn to show its distinctive facial features. The texture of the nostrils and skin is exquisitely sculpted, especially in the tip of the nose, which enhances the realism. The ears of the sculpture are slightly backward, as if to capture the natural posture of the hippo. Arturban statue can customize various animal statues, welcome to contact us.
