Beautiful flying California quail wood carving, handcarved and painted by Casey Edwards in his antique/vintage style. Casey's "flyers" have become very popular and collectible as he is the only person who is carving such a wide variety of all the bird species, especially the waterfowl and game birds with such consistency, originality, and quality and bringing them to you, the buying and collecting public. Here is another one of a kind original flyer by Casey, what a fantastic piece! <...br>This flying California quail is on a pedestal style setting, and it is flying amongst the corn stalks where it is feeding. The head is uplifted and turned, the wings are cupped, the legs are extended, the tail is fanned, there is carved and painted feather detail on all sides making it more valuable, and notice Casey's very own antique looking patina, which you can especially see when held in your hands.......zoom in and see these soft blended umber and sienna colors and feather detail. Of course the corn stalk and corn cobs are also carved......how imaginative! You can search the shops, magazines, trade shows, the internet, etc., and you just won't find this carved artistic quality for sale anywhere, except here, exclusively on Ebay by Casey. This piece measures 20" high, the base is 7" wide, and the California quail is life-size at 11 1/2" long, and 15" wing tip to wing tip. This beautiful original "one of a Casey kind" piece is signed by Casey Edwards as signature is growing in value.
