About the Item

This 19th-century French wooden bird lure exemplifies the intersection of folk craftsmanship and early hunting tradition. Hand-carved in a crescent shape with pierced metal inlays, it was once used to attract birds in the French countryside. The warm patina of the wood and subtle traces of original detailing reflect years of practical use and age-old artistry. Mounted on a modern black metal stand, the piece is elevated from utilitarian tool to sculptural artifact, its form evoking both movement and natural grace. A distinctive decorative object that celebrates French rural heritage and craftsmanship.
