This handcarved woodpecker is expertly crafted by Indian artisans of northern Argentina. Using indigenous materials, the artists carve each bird from native schinopsis balansae wood, known for its rich red and brown tones. Finely polished to reveal their intricate grain patterns, the woodpeckers are accented with inlaid cow bone along their back and beak. Designed to represent the crested Cream Backed Woodpecker (Campephilus leucopogon), this beautifully detailed bird rests atop a thick, natural piece of tree branch. These pieces are imported through Patagon Bird, a development organization that helps promote and distribute the works of artisans in this developing nation, enabling the people to better their economic status and standard of living. Enhance your home with this original, handcrafted piece of art--or give one as an unforgettable gift. The handcrafted nature of this product will produce slight variations in color, form, and sizing.
