128 - Catfish or Silurid

Nok, rare wildlife piece

Here we are in presence of a remarkable piece. Nok animal statues are indeed rare, and the sculptural realism of this silurid makes it quite a unique piece.

Of particular interest are the characteristically Nok head, the body covered in scales, and the perfectly sculpted fins and tail.
