Description
A pair of carved wooden figurines depicting long-billed seabirds, possibly curlews, in a rustic nautical style. Each figure features a distressed white and blue painted finish and a long, down-curved metal bill. One bird is mounted via a thin metal rod to a base designed as three wooden pilings wrapped with natural cord, set into a circular plinth decorated with small pebbles. The second bird is a standalone carving. An indistinct blue oval mark containing white characters is visible on the wing of the larger bird. These items are consistent with contemporary Mediterranean-style home decorations.
Height of mounted figure: approximately 18 cm
Length of standalone figure: approximately 10 cm.
