Faceted aquamarines form the eyes on the man's softly angled face, matched by the light blue accents on his simple, sculpted clothing. With the corners of his lips raised in a knowing smirk, the Human wears an air of confidence. His feet are set apart in a solid stance with his arms resting on his hips. |
|||
Iridescent grey moonstone cabochons used for the man's eyes match the intense glitter of the gemstone comprising the sculpture. Beads of carnelian and drusy quartz blend with the Dwarf's braided beard, stretching nearly to his feet and obscuring any frontal view of his stoic attire. He points forward with his left arm, and his right hand is stationed on his hip to complement his tensed pose. |
|||
Cut to emphasize their magnificent fire, twin amethysts adorn the woman's sharply angled face to represent her discriminating eyes. The smooth alabaster gives the Elf a pristine complexion, and the sculpted folds of her form-fitting attire fall gently around her slender frame. She holds both arms in front of her torso with palms flat and facing forward, frozen forever in a perfect state of grace. |
|||
Naturally flecked with bright gold, a pair of cabochon lapis lazuli creates the eyes on the short woman's face, conveniently matching the painted copper freckles upon her cheeks. Blunted arcs and gentle lines used when sculpting the ivory stretch from the tip of the Halfling's head to her bare feet to give her a soft, amiable appearance. Both of her arms jut outward and slightly upward from her body, as if she's expecting a hug. |
|||
As round as his bald head, the dark crimson rubies set into his eyes give the male an aura of brute intensity. The drab grey granite proves an appropriate medium for the rough, chiseled features and no-nonsense clothing upon the Gor'Tog's sturdy frame. He flexes his bulging biceps away from his torso to emphasize his imposing stature. |
|||
Pairing brilliantly with the blue-grey hue of the stone, the woman's sparkling sapphire eyes stare out at the world from her oval face, a look of curiosity mixed with intrepid desire staining her hardened features. A flowing robe sculpted with dozens of overlapping folds contours the Elothean's body and pools in a puddle of marble at her feet. Her arms fold in front of her body to obscure her hands from view. |
|||
Fiery topaz eyes stare out from above the snout, attractively matching the sharp golden fangs extending from each side of his mouth. Detailed etchings mimic layered scales upon every inch of exposed stone not covered by the S'Kra Mur's loose, sculpted clothing. His long, thick tail curves upward, just as his back arches slightly in response to his bent knees. |
|||
In a striking contrast to her translucent, honey-hued face, two sparkling emerald eyes peek out from behind a set of wire frames upon the woman's plump cheeks. The amber has been expertly molded into the Gnome's curvy female body, with ample coverage provided by a carved frock stretching down to her tiny feet. She clutches her chin with one hand while propping the other on her hip, leaning to one side and lost forever in her ponderings. |
|||
Offsetting the dark face is a set of vivid tourmaline eyes, the jewels displaying a variety of colors from midnight blue to grassy green. Despite the dull, heavy metal comprising the form, the artist has managed to highlight every detail of the female's musculature, subtly recognizable against the molded steel fur clothing she wears. Each extremity is outstretched and angled purposely away from her body. |
|||
Cast against the inky, seemingly endless depths of the stone, the female's glittering iolite eyes provide a complementary brilliance to her distinguishing feline features. Supremely smooth and freshly polished, the Prydaen's sleek body is completely flawless, a true testament to the artist's hand. She leans forward while using her tail for balance, one hand cupping her pointed ear, as if listening for the sounds of potential prey. |
|||
Brilliant green peridots sparkle in their settings in the male's masterfully sculpted face. Depicted in moonskin, the Rakash bears the characteristic lupine features as well as a long tail and textured fur. He stands tall and straight, his feet supporting his solid frame as he folds his arms across his broad chest. |

Tiny fish bones form the trim, splaying outward from the fabric at odd angles. |
|||
Light reflects off the surface like the moon on a glassy pond at night. |
|||
Inexpertly braided tendrils leave the surface bumpy and coarse. |
|||
Limp and lifeless, the stringy white lengths along the edges mimic cobwebs. |
|||
The edges are bound with tough sinew to prevent fraying. |
|||
The image of a dragon in flight is branded upon the surface, its dark lines contrasting with the earthy brown material. |

[Argwesh's Alcove, Entryway]
A semicircle of regal statues, each bearing a unique form, stands guard at either flank of the circular door in the wagon's southern wall. The space feels cramped, not due to the size of the wagon, but rather a consequence of so many wares packed within. You also see a bronze-framed vellum sign and a silver-robed Rakash attendant.
A bronze-framed vellum sign reads:
Welcome to Argwesh's fine home furnishings!
Here you will find majestic stands to boast your collection
of equally exquisite weaponry and armor. These auspicious
creations honor each of the Eleven Races in their finest
beauty and elegance. No noble's home is truly complete
in the absence of such a work of art!
