Hand-Carved Wooden Pelican Sculpture with Fish

About the Item

A striking and whimsical hand-carved wooden sculpture featuring a stylized pelican holding a fish in its beak. This unique mid-century modern piece is crafted from solid Douglas Fur wood, showcasing beautiful natural grain patterns and flowing lines that emphasize the form of the bird. The eyes are encrusted tiger eye stones. The exaggerated beak and sleek curves give the sculpture a modernist flair, while the craftsmanship suggests a mid-20th century folk art influence. A true conversation piece, perfect for coastal, rustic, or eclectic interiors. Shipping from Orange, California.
