The African Wildlife Edge Sculptures shown in our current Range of Edge Sculptures consists of Cobra Snakes, the Giraffe and the White or Brown Rhinocerous.
The Cobra Edge Sculptures are produced by designer Matt Buckley in two colour variations, either the Copper Cobra or the Desert Cobra Edge Sculpture.
Cobra is the common name of various snakes. All of the known cobras are venomous and many are capable of rearing upwards and producing a hood when threatened.
The Rhinocerous Edge Sculptures are produced by designer Matt Buckley in two colour variations, either the Brown Rhino or the White Rhino. Edge Sculpture.
Rhinoceros means ‘nose-horned’ and are some of the largest species able to reach or exceed one tonne in weight. They have a herbivorous diet, small brains (400–600 g) for mammals of their size, one or two horns, and a thick (1.5–5 cm) protective skin formed from layers of collagen. They generally eat leafy material, although their ability to ferment food allows them to subsist on more fibrous plant matter when necessary.
Finally, there is the Giraffe Edge Sculpture. The Giraffe has intrigued various cultures, both ancient and modern, for its peculiar appearance, and has often been featured in paintings, books, and cartoons. It is an African mammal and the tallest living terrestrial animal that are able to acquire nutrients from plant-based food. The giraffe’s chief distinguishing characteristics are its extremely long neck and legs, its horn-like protuberances and its distinctive coat patterns.
