About the Item

A great abstract sculpture by the noted sculptor Alex Taller. I believe he worked in Florida and used a lot of marine items in his sculpture. A lot of his work is from the 1970s which is when this sculpture is likely from. The bone is glued to the base and is a little loose nut holding. The base is signed Alex Taller.
