Stork Head on Spring! brown and white I'm getting more and more

I'm getting more and more into carved wooden objects

but now I'm pretty confident it is Japanese

no visible flaws

and though there are others fancier

where I think it had just been delivered

Stork Head on Spring! brown and white I'm getting more and moreHow could I resist this??? Though this old stork has lost his body, I think the bobble head is pretty fabulous just on its own. I'd certainly love to see it inspire a whole new creation, though I'd probably find a good spot for it just as is. I believe it is made of papier mache, and the there are a few cracks on the top of the top hat, but the paint remains bright and all the better for some wear, and the spring is springy, making him bobble still!
