About the Item

This 19th-century French bird lure is a rare example of functional folk art turned sculptural object. Hand-carved from wood, it features a broad, wing-like form adorned with painted circular inlays in blue, red, and white—details once used to attract birds during hunting or training. The patina of the wood, along with the slender turned handle and iron spike, reveals its authentic age and craftsmanship. Mounted on a modern black metal stand, the piece transforms from a utilitarian tool into a striking display of rural artistry and design history, ideal for collectors of primitive or naturalist objects.
