This is a one-of-a-kind folk art piece with charming painted details and smooth hand-finished carving. The body has a traditional seagull form with a white head, gray wings, and yellow beak.
It's carved from Jelutong wood, a fine-grained, lightweight wood often used by carvers for its smooth cutting quality. Perfect for collectors of folk art, nautical décor, handmade wood carvings, or vintage bird sculptures. Good vintage condition with expected wear for a 45-year-old carving.Paint shows light scuffs and marks (normal for handmade/older wood pieces). No cracks, breaks, or repairs noted. Signature/inscription on underside is clear and original.
