Welcome to The "New Whooos" Club. Perhaps you didn't even know you were a member, but I do have certain customers (and friends) who would like to know, immediately, when I am ready to add new owls to my Web site.
Just let me know if you don't wish to be a member. No harm will come to you. I have added banners at the top of each section so you will know where to find these particular owls when they end up on my Web site.* Of course, you are under no obligation to buy anything, but you do have the first look at them, and I will put them aside for as long as you wish—up to one year, anyway. I will add these owls to my Web site on Tuesday, December 6th, so take a sneak peek now.

I like the way the manganese appears on this owl. It is actually manganese, that causes the mossy pattern as well the swirls and streaks. I enjoyed bringing the owl out of this piece of stone. The owl is about 4.25" high, 3.25" wide, and 3 " deep. It is carved on three sides, and the back is smooth and polished. Price: $525.00

This owl is quite small and what you see is carved while the rest is smooth and polished. Its quizzical look might be asking, "Are YOU good enough for ME?." It is such a pretty piece of stone with the mossy pattern of manganese and a tiny bit of iron causing the slight golden color. The owl is 2.25" high, 1.75" wide, and +.75" deep. The back is smooth and the owl is mounted on a dark-stained cherry base that is 1.5" square and .5" high.
Price: $135.00

Angular is the word, but this owl has "attitude" despite its size. It has a nice representation of manganese dendrites with swirls of manganese on the smooth and polished back. It is worth a look at the larger photos The owl, itself, is about 3.75" high, 1.5" wide, and 1.5" deep and mounted on a dark-stained cherry base that is 2 " x 2" x 1.75" high. |

Another Barn Owl, this one also looks a bit intimidating. I have no control over where the dendritic pattern ends up, but I think is it quite appealing, here. The owl itself is 3.5" high x 2.75" wide x 1.75" deep. It is mounted on a cherry-stained oak base that is 2" square x 1" high.

This is a rather strange piece of dendritic soapstone in that aren't any pronounced dendrites showing. Evidently, based on its coloration, it does have some iron mixed in. It is a mish-mash with both coarse and smooth surfaces. As the larger photos show, this owl is minimally carved all the way around The piece stands 4.5" high, .75 wide and 3.25" deep. It is mounted on a dark-stained cherry base that 3" x 2" x 1".

The pose of this owl intrigued me, and I hope you like the way it came out with a rather strange-shaped wing on the side facing you. There are nice dendrites along with swirls and streaks of the manganese, and a little bit of iron mixed in. The owl is 2.5" high, 2.5" wide, and 2.75" deep, and is carved all the way around. It is mounted on a cherry-stained oak base.

This pudgy owl has a lot of character and sits so properly on its base. As the other photos illustrate, the owl is only carved on the front side but the back is smooth and polished. Note both manganese dendrites and swirls on the back. The owl is 3" high x 3" wide x 2.75" deep. It is mounted on a dark-stained oak base that is 3" x 2" x 1". Price: $250.00 |

It appears as though this owl heard you sneaking up behind it but it doesn't seem to be bothered by your presence. No matter which way you look at this owl, you have to notice the dendrites. There is also a touch of iron on the owl's left brow and wing. The back of the owl is smooth and polished. Standing on a 3" x 2" x 1" dark-stained oak base, the owl is 3.75" high x 2.75" wide x 2.25" deep.

This is another small piece of pink Chinese translucent soapstone. It is a little harder to carve by hand, but its translucency and the way it changes in different light fascinates me. The owl is 2.5" high x 2" wide x 2" deep. It is mounted on a cherry-stained oak base that is 2" square x 1" high. Price: $150.00

This is very slightly out-of-focus, and I apologize for that. As you can see in the larger photos, the manganese is swirled and there are small areas of iron, too. The iron is always an added distinction, in my book. The owl is about 1.75" high, 1.5" wide, and 1" deep. The back is smooth and polished. It stands on a dark-stained oak base 1.5" square and .5" high.

A signature piece with half the face behind a wing, this little owl still has a lot going for it. color-wise, this little owl has it all. The back is smooth and polished and it stands 3.5" high. It is 1.75" wide and about 1" deep. The owl is mounted on a 2" square x 1" high oak base.

It is very tiny and a bit out-of-focus. Still, this little owl is almost the mauve color caused by the manganese with a little iron mixed in. The piece stands about 1.75" high, 1.5" wide, and is approximately 1.5" deep. It is mounted on a cherry base 1.5" square and .5" high
