Offered in this sale is a vintage if not antique carved wood - perhaps Black Forest - bust of a man with pointed ears wearing a plumed hat and ruffled collar. There is not too much I can tell you about this piece regarding precisely when or where it was made, however, it does appear... to be quite old. The carving is very well done. It measures roughly 4 1/2" tall x 4" wide x 3 1/2" deep. There is a piece of old wire wrapped around the neck which was likely placed there by a previous owner to be able to hang the piece for display. The condition is good however I do note that there is a very old professional restoration to a break in the collar on the right side which you can see if you look closely at the 2nd and 8th images. Please be sure to enlarge and zoom each image for a close up view of the detail of the decoration and the condition and do not hesitate to send me a message if you have questions or would like additional images shot from a different angle. I always guarantee everything that I sell to be as described. This piece is being sold without a reserve as long as there is an opening bid. The shipping cost within the United States is $6.00.The last four images illustrate just a few of the many other items I have or will be posting separately for sale on Ebay from several different estate collections including a pair of Marcolini period Meissen porcelain cups and saucers, a Reily & Storer 19th century sterling silver heraldic cup (9th image), an early Republic period Famille Rose Chinese porcelain covered jar (10th image), a signed Murano Glass Sandro Frattin sculpture (11th image), Chinese jade, a number of pieces of scenic Staffordshire china, small collection of American studio art glass, Continental and other Dresden area porcelain, Murano art glass, several 19th century American fluid oil and kerosene oil lamps, and I am also continuing to post an eclectic mix of antique to contemporary china glass and accessories including flow blue china, Rosenthal porcelain, a small collection of 19th and early 20th century Chinese and Japanese porcelain and ceramics, Scandinavian and Murano art glass, antique photo albums and photographs, as well as an eclectic mix of other 18th - 20th century American, English, Continental and Chinese ceramics, porcelain, glass and accessories.
