Head on Block Body, Evocative Old Unfinished Carving drawings of houses which is much aged but

which is much aged but still retaining some of its glorious lapis blue paint

and with the most phenomenal surface

with some scratching and staining to the slate

and the brass pin to hold it closed is still in place

There's lots of wear along the piece of wood to which the head is nailed

Head on Block Body, Evocative Old Unfinished Carving drawings of houses which is much aged butAnother little carving, this one I presume unfinished, but I very much like him this way, with just a block of a body to match his straight ahead facing little carved head. Pine I believe, with a warm dry wood patina and warm presence. 5 1 8" t x 1 3 4" w x 1" d and in good condition, stands steady on its own.
