Museum quality Carving! Magical Colour!
JONAH (The Beluga) has the distinctive protuberance on its forehead and a small blunt head with a beak that gives a unique comical look that people have come to cherish.
Jonah is special!
Pits has picked the exact colour and pattern for him.
Pits has an uncanny talent for creating sculptures with the most individual colours which suit the carving subject perfectly!
Belugas are gregarious and have a high pitched birdlike sound which is why they are also called "sea canaries".
Our sweet tempered whale is preparing to flip his tail, arch his back and take off as only a Beluga can for parts unknown.
