Fabulous Large Hand-carved Folk Art Ionic Column Pedestal carved antler figure with the Allied Printing TradesI found this one in Vermont earlier this week, and made the decision to scoop it in one second flat.

Just the right balance of primitive and classical, folky and refined, sculpture and stand really quite a striking thing, large and with an even larger presence. 16 3 8 x 5 15 16 x 6 1 8 and in good condition.
