Vintage Hand-Carved & Hand-Painted Wooden Fox Sculpture

A wonderfully graphic vintage wooden fox, hand carved and hand painted with the wonderfully imperfect character that makes folk art pieces so appealing. Measuring an impressive 20 inches long, the fox is depicted mid-stride with one foreleg raised, a long sweeping brush, pointed ears, and a beautifully expressive face. Its russet, black, and creamy white painted finish retains visible carving marks and natural variations throughout, giving the piece a distinctly handmade quality.

The elongated silhouette and substantial scale make this especially striking displayed on a console, library table, huntboard, or mantel. It feels right at home among sporting art, tartan, silver, leather-bound books, and other pieces collected over time - an exceptional decorative accent for an English country or equestrian interior.

CONDITION
Vintage condition with age-appropriate wear, variation to the painted finish, surface marks, and imperfections consistent with a hand-carved and hand-painted wooden piece. These characteristics contribute beautifully to its collected character.

SIZE
Approximately 20"L x 2.5"W x 12.5"H

MATERIAL
Hand-carved wood with hand-painted finish

STYLING SUGGESTION
Give this fox pride of place atop a dark wood console or huntboard layered with antique sporting books, tartan, silver, and a small arrangement of autumn branches. Its unusually long silhouette also makes it especially good on a mantel or centered beneath a piece of traditional sporting art.
