This imposing terracotta sculpture by artist J.H. Boone is a significant example of modern Southwestern-style art. Standing at an impressive 32.25 inches to the top of the spear, the figure showcases Boone's distinctive elongated style and deep, earthy glazes that emphasize natural texture. This particular piece depicts a warrior in a stoic pose holding a tall spear, accented by a primitive animal petroglyph etched near the base of the cloak.
The statue is cleverly designed to slide off a central pole attached to the heavy hexagonal base, allowing for safer transport and handling. Its substantial height and rustic aesthetic make it an ideal focal point for a desert-style home, a professional office, or a collection of Native American-themed art. The craftsmanship captures a sense of quiet strength and timelessness that is characteristic of J.H. Boone's highly collectible works.
This item is vintage, over 25 years old. While it appears to be in good condition, please note there is a chip on the nose and cracks on the base that may have been previously repaired. While it appears to be in good condition overall, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
