Blue Quartzite Dolphin Sculpture on Onyx Base, Brazil, Late 20th Century.

A vibrant and finely carved blue quartzite sculpture depicting a lively group of dolphins emerging playfully from stylized ocean waves. Expertly carved from a single specimen of natural Brazilian quartzite, the composition showcases the stone’s striking turquoise-blue coloration with subtle natural veining throughout. The dolphins are sculpted in dynamic motion, their forms seamlessly integrated into the flowing wave structure, demonstrating both technical skill and artistic sensitivity to the material. The carving is mounted on a removable natural mineral base, and further raised on a shaped black onyx plinth, providing contrast and a polished presentation. Made in Brazil, Late 20th Century.
