About the Item

A refined Austrian early 20th-century hand-carved wooden bird, mounted on its original stand for wall display. Executed in the traditional “Viechtauer” style, these sculptural folk art pieces were crafted in Austria’s Alpine regions, where master artisans transformed humble materials into decorative objects of enduring beauty. The bird’s expressive form, rich patina, and authentic hand-carved details reflect exceptional craftsmanship and timeless appeal. Both sculptural and evocative, it offers a sophisticated accent for curated interiors, from alpine chalets to modern luxury residences. A rare and highly collectible example of European folk art, acquired from a private estate in Vienna, Austria.
