Decorative Wooden Snake - Hand-Carved by Peruvian Artisans
These segmented wooden snakes are decorative animal figures carved from gmelina wood and hand-painted in colorful rainforest-inspired patterns. Their linked wooden sections allow the body to curve and bend, giving each snake a lively, natural form for display.
These wooden snake figures make distinctive decorations for a shelf, table, nature display, classroom exhibit, or special gathering. The painted designs are inspired by colorful snakes from the Amazon and beyond, but each piece is an artistic interpretation rather than a scientific model of a specific species.
The sale of these handmade decorations supports forest conservation and helps meet local needs in traditional communities in Peru.
Recommended for adult collectors, nature lovers, and home decor use. Not intended as a toy or for use by young children.
Craft lengths by size: Small (12"), Medium (20"), Large (24"), Extra-large (28"), and Extra-extra large (39").
Model: DECWR
Support native artisans & rainforest in the Amazon
Amazon forest loss is driving species to extinction, aggravating global warming, and robbing people of unique medicines, foods and other benefits. Cutting and burning forests is often more profitable than conserving them, so some native communities in northern Peru have illegally logged and grown coca and other cash-crops to escape poverty.
