Carved Old Wooden Folk Art Head on Block goats but this is my favorite

but this is my favorite among them and the one that really got me

and the wonderful regular customer who purchased it told me it was her favorite thing she'd ever bought from me

but with chip carving to most every edge

Carved Old Wooden Folk Art Head on Block goats but this is my favoriteThis old carved head, with deep and warm dry wood patina, has a bit of an Inuit feel to me; I'm not sure that's the case, but it has that sort of elemental, no fuss purity. There is a nail metal post extending from the neck; I found it stuck into a newish painted piece of wood base, but thought this old block a bit more in keeping, so re positioned it (and easy to do so again if you like.) Including base: 3 3 4" tall. Head itself: 3" t x 2 3 8" w x 1
