About the Item

Charming collection of 10 vintage folk art bird silhouettes, 8 of which are hand-cut from wood and painted in vibrant, stylized representations of various North American species. The remaining 2 are made of thin sheet metal with hardware for a rod to be placed. 7 are mounted on a metal rod for easy display, suggesting their original use as lawn ornaments, garden markers or decorative accents for planters or window boxes 1 Wooden bird is missing its rod and the 2 metal birds come without the rod out hardware to hold one. The collection includes identifiable representations such as a red cardinal, American goldfinch, Baltimore oriole, and a red-headed woodpecker, along with other songbirds rendered in primitive, yet expressive detail. The birds vary in size, with the largest measuring approximately 8.5 inches in length. Most retain their original paint with notable patina, craquelure, and surface wear that enhances their authentic, timeworn character. Crafted with simple tools and hand-painted with flat, bold colors, these silhouettes reflect a distinctly mid-century American folk aesthetic. Some of the birds still have their original mounting hardware, while others are fitted with aged metal stakes The weathered surfaces and slight irregularities highlight their hanamade nature. This cohesive set offers both collectible and decorative appeal - ideal for folk art collectors, rustic interior styling, or outdoor display in a protected setting. Sold as a complete set of 10. Wear consistent with age and outdoor use. Vintage condition as pictured. Box S7
