One of a Kind and Professionally Hand Carved Antique Sculpture of a Groundhog

$1,310.30List Price

About the Item

Once in a lifetime find. This probably is the coolest ever and most realistic groundhog sculpture you will ever see. We have searched the worldwide web and nothing even comes close. This clearly is the work of a master carver and to have found it in such superb condition more than made our day. It is not often that you come across a realistic sculpture that truly captures the soul of a particular animal, but this carved-out-of-one-piece-groundhog really ticks all the boxes. It has the right proportions, a practical size, the perfect body posture and the details in his face too show that the artist has carefully studied this endearing animal. All these features have given this unique sculpture its soul and beauty and this fine antique will make you smile every time you look at it. Groundhogs are not particularly well known in modern Europe, but the movie Groundhog Day really changed that. This rare specimen was most likely created in the German Black Forest region and judging from the flowing grain the artist picked the perfect piece of wood (we believe this to be pine or pitch pine) for this sculpture. Our fair price for this one of a kind antique even includes perfect packing and also worldwide shipping from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum height x width x depth: 8.9 x 7.3 x 5.1 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish and artistic and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.

LIBERTY'S LONDON CAMEL SCULPTURE WiTH LOVELY AGED LEATHER ON HAND CARVED WOOD

By Liberty of London

Located in Pulborough, GB

We are excited to present this camel sculpture with lovely aged leather on hand-carved wood. It has been made for Liberty's in London. This lovely camel has both great aesthetic and decretive value. It has been made for the kids of the wealthy people that shopped by Liberty's. Underneath the leather, the hide is a very well-carved wooden sculpture which is why the sizeable camel has such realistic features. We feel that the maker of this work of animal art has beautifully captured the look and soul of this majestic desert animal...
