Beautifully Humble Carved Folk Art Gull in Great Paint B&G Denmark He’s lost the toe ofPure love for this gull humble but completely satisfying, with the roundedness of its yellow beak together with the soft yellow and gray and white finely alligatored paint of the body, making it feel quite singular and special.

Bird itself is 4" tall measured on the square; 4 1 4" from top of head to tail
