Fabian and Vivella Cheama
Fabian Cheama may be the best technical carver of the Cheama family. The details in his work are often finer and more intricate than those of his siblings. The etched fur and delicate features of his animals are superb. He often carves tails that curl many times, and perhaps this is both a bit of flourish as well as artistic license. His fetishes now bring the highest prices of any in the family.
Vivella Cheama, Fabian's wife, has a style quite distinct from that of her husband. Her horses are smooth, sleek, and beautiful. Her other creatures are simple and smooth. She is especially good at carving angels and maidens.
