Early 20th Century Self Taught Hand Carved Bird Figure

About the Item

Early 20th century self taught hand carved bird figure We are proud to offer a wonderfully hand carved sculptural self-taught figure of a bird. This carving shows great craftsmanship in the detail of this figure, with glass eyes and in a position of catching its prey which is a small mouse. At the base of the figure there is an engraved letter B, likely to have been the initial of the carver we assume. The item is made from a single carved piece of wood. The item has a lovely aged patination across its surface and is very decorative and sculptural as you can see. This item was uncovered in Paris earlier this month and is untouched in form. Dimensions in inches: H 16” x W 13” x D 14” Origin: France Period: 1920-1930 Condition: Aged through wear and tear is present across this item as you can see, patination across the wooden surface is present with light fading in sections, structurally secure and not cracked or broken.
