This one's in pretty good shape compared to most I've seen (the fact that these are usually quite battered speaks for itself

painted fingernails

This is definitely one of my all time favorite things I've had in the shop

Love from Florrie

Special Old Burl Carved Bird 1930s artwork This one's in pretty goodJust a wonderful old carving from a piece of burl wood, with the grain of the wood giving added life to the body of the bird and making the whole piece feel rather as if in flight. Subtle but really quite a special one I think, actually one of my favorite carvings Iver had. 3 1 8 t x 4 l x 1 3 8 d. There is a small bit of loss to the tail of the bird and to the very tip of its beak, both minor and old and I dont think detracting. Wonderful dry wood
