| Very well carved ivory figure of a man with a bird perched on the top of his head and two animals at his feet. The figure which is signed on the base is approximately 6 3/4" high and is in good condition but it has a couple of issues. A twig which extended from the top of the man's right hand has been broken off. It is not noticeable from the front, but is evident when viewed from above. There is a line of discoloration on the interior of the birds left wing. The back has yellowed a bit from exposure and there are a couple of stress lines on the foot and lower coat. Although it clearly has some age, I am unable to date it with any certaintity. I will ship this item only to a destination in the United States. Shipping and insurance would be $10.00. Should you wish additional pictures or have any questions, please let me know. Thanks. | ||
