especially

which is original to the making and I believe makes it all the more appealing

and not simply for the tourist market

The patina on this one a beautiful thing

Very Sweet Folk Art Cow boxwood and brass In terrific antique conditionThis sweet thing, how to resist? I don't she's especially old, but she does pay homage to primitively carved animals of earlier times, including with real hair (I'm not quite sure of what variety!) for her tail. Wonderfully folky and very charming I think, with a detailed udder underneath! 9 3 8" long x 6 3 8" tall x 3 1 8" wide. Polychrome over wood I believe, and in good, sturdy condition.
