Early 20th Century Carved Wooden Figure of a Mormon

About the Item

The Mormon We are proud to offer a unique hand carved early 20th century figure of a traditional Mormon. Wonderfully carved from a single piece of hard wood, detailing an angel at the base of his feet. The figure would likely have held a stick which has been lost over time. A totally unique carving in this form wearing traditional clothing of the period. Aged original paint still visible detailing a wonderful hat, blue eyes, long wavey hair and Sandals. Its highly likely this figure originally stood in a church or religious setting in America many years ago, recently uncovered in a private collection in the North of England earlier this month. Size in inches: H 32” x W 10” x D 11” Origin: America Period: Early 20th century Material: Hand wood Condition: This item is completely solid in structure and form, missing a few fingered on its right hand, Natural wood split at its front, scuffed, and worn painted surface and a natural patina across the whole figure. This figure weights roughly 20kg, please review all the photos provided as part of this advert and propose questions where sections are unclear to avoid disappointment.
