This is a snake ornament my father made about 20 years ago as a woodworking hobby. It's a one-of-a-kind piece, with the warmth and powerful form unique to handmade crafts, not found in mass-produced items. The surface is carefully carved with scales, which create a rich expression depending on how the light hits it. The dynamic form draws an auspicious "S-shape." The deep green color is accented by powerful red eyes. Perfect as a lucky charm for the entrance, as an object for your desk, or as an animal zodiac decoration for the Year of the Snake. Height: Approximately 18cm Width: Approximately 18cm Depth: Approximately 3cm As this is a handmade work, there may be slight variations in the paint and carving, but we hope to offer it to those who can appreciate it as part of its "character." #snake #serpent #ornament #woodcarving #handmade #woodwork #zodiac #yearofthesnake #luckyitem #oneofakind #folkcrafts #interiordesign #handmade #snake #fatherswork
