THE STORY 
A hand-engraved large antique grey water buffalo skull, engraved by craftsmen who passed the ancient art of engraving from father to son. The skull has been fully carved by hand with much care. It is an unusual, decorative piece. Engraved into the skull is a beautiful Human Skull motif. 

THE DISCLAIMER
- The horns will be detached for transport purposes, and are easily reattached. There is also a drawstring attached to the back of the skull so that it can be mounted on the wall.
- The horns are always packed in the bottom of the box, underneath the skull. Please make sure to remove the horns before discarding the packaging.
- Since it is a natural skull, it might have some natural minimal cracks, crevices or missing teeth. This is normal. Please refer to the pictures.
- Our skulls are cleaned professionally, but sometimes minor discolouration still occurs on the teeth. This is natural and normal, and not something we can do a lot about. Please refer to the pictures.

Approximate dimensions: 
Length: 75 cm 
Width: 71 cm 

SHIPMENT 
- The skull will be sent with a Track & Trace code via DHL Parcel, DPD or postNl. The tracking will be updated in your Catawiki lot once your parcel has been dropped off. Please check regularly to avoid your parcel being returned. 
- If you have any questions about your parcel please contact us using the Catawiki message service. We will try to reply within 3 working days.
