Default Small statuette

Ok, so i'm not a complete beginner, but i've only really used pine.

I'm looking to carve a christmas gift for my mom in the form of a statuette. in a deep brown shade. I have no idea what hard woods of 'hazlenut-shell' color will be suitable.

any advice on which woods and at what price they are found would be much appreciated. If you could also say how easily available they are i would be indebted to you.

[glow=red,2,300][shadow=red,left,300][move]THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! [/move][/shadow][/glow]

Default Re: Small statuette

Forgot to add, this statuette will be about half a meter tall and 20-30 centimeteres across in a swan-like shape.
