Apex

This life-sized T-Rex skull is masterfully hand-carved from African Black Limba, a rare and visually striking hardwood. The process spanned over 53 days and 480+ hours of intensive craftsmanship. Each board of Black Limba was carefully chosen for its grain and character, then laminated into a monumental block from which the skull was sculpted.

The form was meticulously shaped, sanded, and finished to highlight the natural beauty of the wood. It rests atop a custom slab of Quartzite, supported by a handcrafted Mid-Century Modern base—also made from Black Limba—designed and built by Fine furniture maker Alex Reynaud.

Integrated beneath the lower jaw is a subtle acrylic panel embedded with LED lighting, powered by battery and controlled via remote, adding a dramatic underglow to the piece.

Weighing over 300 pounds and measuring 46” long, 30” wide, and 65” tall with the pedestal, this sculpture is not only a feat of woodworking but a bold piece of modern art. It stands as the centerpiece of my portfolio—a true apex creation designed to make an unforgettable statement in any home or business.
