Egg-shaped Soapstone Box from Haiti

Each of these egg-shapped boxes are hand-carved from white soap-stone (river stones) in the Leogane and Gressier regions of Haiti. These were also the areas worst affected by the earthquake of 2010. A devesating earthquake that killed an estimated 250,000 people and displaced more than 1.5 million. Although that was many years ago, many are still struggling to recover from the affects.
