A collector would snap up that find. Very nice (and authentic) looking carving.

Dave - that's FINE. Maybe the painting was difficult, but you sure did a great job. What's the size?

One like it, maybe 4 or 5" tall with a little screw eye in top would make a great tree ornament too. I wonder why I keep thinking about tree ornaments ????
