Rust and Rot ~ Purveyors of wonderful things.
Welcome to the sale of this decorative carving.
This wooden carving would have been hand made and depicts a mythical creature standing on its back legs with it front paws to its face. I'm unsure where the carving originates from but some people I have spoken to in the trade think it maybe Nepalese. The carving is beautifully done with the creature having rear character. Although carved on all sides there is a dovetail joint to the top suggesting this once would have been part of a larger piece of furniture or shrine. All in all a unique piece of decorative interior design.
In good condition commensurate with its age and use. Please have a good look at the photographs as they form part of the description and contact me if you have any further questions.
The carving measures (in cm) 56 tall, 10 wide and 8 deep. It weighs 1.8kg
