Note:

Working with incredibly hard stone which others might have found an obstacle, Barnabus utilizes the material and creates timeless, monumental beasts while at the same time seemingly soft and solemn. A Barnabus musk-ox, equivalent to a Pauta bear, has been a highly collectable item for decades.
