[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 342648, member: 55"]Are you sure this is a carving, and not ceramic? If it is carved stone, it would not be what is usually called soapstone in most parts of the world. However, there is a region of Kenya known for the very white soapstone found there, and also known as a center for carvings made of that stone. This is much nicer than the current carvings from that area though.[/QUOTE]
