Seri ironwood (palo fierro) eagle sculptures are traditional hand-carved folk art from the Seri (Comcaac) indigenous people of Sonora, Mexico, particularly around areas like Punta Chueca and El Desemboque. en.wikipedia.org The wood comes from the Olneya tesota (desert ironwood) tree, one of the densest and heaviest woods in the world—it sinks in water. Seri carvers traditionally use simple hand tools (axes, rasps, glass for smoothing, and polishing with sand), then apply wax for a smooth, glossy finish that highlights the wood's beautiful grain.
