Up and over! This Big Leap Fish springs from an oval base in one smooth curve, with a carved line for a mouth and a small round eye on each side. A long fin points down on each side of its belly and a broad tail fin rises behind. The dark chocolate wood shows fine streaks of grain from head to base.

Cocobolo is a tropical hardwood from the Pacific side of Panama and Central America. It is so dense it sinks in water, and its natural oils polish to a soft, warm shine. Fresh cut, the wood shows orange and red tones with dark streaks; with age the colors deepen, so no two carvings ever look alike.

Each piece is carved by hand in Panama, in the wood carving traditions of the Emberá and Wounaan peoples. Their carvers have long chosen cocobolo for figures of the animals and plants of the rainforest around them.
