Haitian Carved Wood Kissing Couple sterling silver polar bear but this piece closely resemblesI just love the intensity of this kissing couple, Haitian, and carved from one piece of wood. I especially love that the these two lovers are joined at both lips and noses and it certainly feels like their eyes are locked on one another as well! Her body forms a base such that the carving can stand upright, while also looping up to become him, in a gesture that feels like a forever embrace. A perfect little gift for one's soulmate! 4 1 2" tall x 2 1
