Wonderful Old Painted Iron Folk Art Swan Doorstop antique bridge counter or simply in a groupingThis swan very much reminds me of an old iron carnival shooting target, but it was made to function as a doorstop I believe, and of course, being a swan, no one would ever want to shoot at it! I think it is really quite a beautiful thing, primitive and graceful at once, with great old white paint that shows plenty of rust at the base, plus a pale yellow beak and black dot for the eye. 9 1 2" w x 8" t x 4" d; weighs 5 pounds 14 oz. Very good condition
