{"product_id":"sculpture-visage-sumba-bandeau-cauris-socle-19","title":"Sumba carved face with cowrie shell headband on stand, 19 cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eA light sandstone face with a smooth crown, encircled by a jute rope band to which cowrie shells are attached in groups of three, forming small, regularly spaced flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rope is tightly wound in five or six turns, and it is the rope itself, not glue, that secures the base of the shells: each flower is nestled between two coils. The assembly is theoretically detachable, which explains why the flowers are never identically aligned from one piece to another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStyle and Decoration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe jute introduces a third material and an intermediate color between the stone and the shell, softening the overall look. This is the easiest version in the series to match, suitable for both light linen interiors and warm wood settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEveryday Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe band protrudes slightly from the profile, by only three or four millimeters, but enough to prevent the piece from fitting into a precisely calculated space between two books. Measure based on the width of the band, not the face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe jute rope is what ages the fastest: it frays with friction and slowly darkens in light, eventually losing its color contrast with the stone. Nothing truly prevents this, but storing it away from direct sunlight significantly slows down the process.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bazar Bizar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54461483647303,"sku":"BAHRA034","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/8000\/8263\/files\/sculpture-visage-sumba-bandeau-cauris-socle-19.jpg?v=1785339792","url":"https:\/\/www.fenalor.com\/en\/products\/sumba-carved-face-with-cowrie-shell-headband-on-stand-19-cm","provider":"Fenalor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
