19th Century Carved Wooden Eagle with Iron Talons

A striking 19th-century hand-carved wooden eagle, featuring finely detailed plumage and expressive craftsmanship. The sculpture retains traces of its original polychromy, with subtle blue tones on the beak and red accents inside the mouth, adding depth and character to its presence. The eagle stands firmly on forged iron legs and talons, giving the piece a powerful and lifelike stance.

This impressive carving likely once adorned a piece of architectural or decorative furniture, or may have served as a heraldic or ecclesiastical emblem. Beautiful patina throughout, highlighting both the artistry and age of the work.
