Yawo Couple Sculpture
Beautifully sculpted African Lady and Gent with gorgeously detailed features. From The Cornrows to the cheekbones, both pieces in this set are striking in person.
The pair look great together and are sure to make an impact wherever they are placed.
Perfect for a mantlepiece, bookshelf or matching side tables to add a touch of glamour.
Please note this couple is vintage so there is some minor tear. The lady has some damage on her ear and a small chip on her stand while the man has a tiny chip on his nose only noticeable with close inspections

Why it's on The Cornrow
We love to curate items that represent the Black form, they are very hard to come by in a form that doesn't feel a little bit racist or inappropriate or where the person isn't doing hard labour in their pose...(cough cough Blackamoor art)

The Cornrow, founded by sisters Kemi (big sis) and Lara (little sis) in 2020, is a heartfelt tribute to their African and Caribbean heritage. With a deep passion for homeware, books, and lifestyle products that celebrate the Black experience, the sisters scour the globe for joyful representations of their culture. Kemi, who left a career in corporate finance during the UK lockdown, is the driving force behind The Cornrow, sharing her love for the brand on Instagram @CottageNoir. Lara, an accomplished digital marketing professional, is committed to supporting Black-owned brands and can be found on TikTok at ThisIsLaraLand. The Cornrow is a true family affair, with their mother Yasmin providing creative advice and gift-wrapping services @yasminwrapstar, and Yasmin's partner Jonathan, formerly of Chelsea Design Centre, offering invaluable retail advice. Together, they are on a mission to spotlight under-represented stories of Black and African diaspora design, introducing "Afro-aristo" as a fresh addition to traditional design trends.
