  • Condition: There are no significant abrasions, scratches or indentations to the cow hide. The joins all appear to be very stable and intact. Minimal scuffing to the sculpture. Sporadic areas of embedded dirt / dust. At the bottom of the handle there appears to be some distress at the join although the join is still very intact (see image online). There are no visible stamps or markings. The overall condition is very good.
