Details

Crafted in the mid-19th century, this life-sized American eagle is a commanding fusion of folk art and maritime history. Carved from laminated pine with sweeping back wings, the eagle sits poised atop a wooden orb and swivels smoothly on a custom black-painted metal stand. Remnants of original gilding remain across the surface, and evidence of an iron back-strap suggests its historical origin atop a steamship pilothouse. A weathered, authentic patina showcases its age, with minor historical wear, including a small vintage chip to the lower beak and tongue. Elevate your collection with an artifact that embodies a commitment to preserving timeless treasures.

Wear commensurate with age, with a weathered, patinaed surface. Small chip to the lower beak and tongue.
