Folk art dog sculpture with engraved rifle. A hand carved wood dog and beagle gift by Carviani.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHe has been out. You can tell by the way he is standing, the rifle held easy across his body, the hat tucked under his arm, the scarf still wrapped against the morning cold. He is back now and he is not particularly talkative about where he has been or what he found there. That expression has been on beagles since before anyone thought to put one in a green coat and carve him out of wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a hand carved and entirely hand painted wooden beagle statue, approximately eight inches tall, dressed in the clothes of a gentleman who takes his field days seriously. The coat is a deep forest green, facet carved in the way of serious folk art rather than sanded smooth, so the light catches the wood planes and gives the cloth its own quiet texture. Under it a cream striped waistcoat, a loosely wrapped scarf with individual painted fringe, black lapels, and tall black boots with painted stitching at the seams. He is holding a carved hat under one arm and a rifle across his chest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLook closely at the gunstock. There is gold scrollwork engraved into it, painted by hand at a scale that requires patience most people do not have. It is the kind of detail that reveals itself after you have owned the piece for a while, that you notice one afternoon in a particular light and feel a small, genuine surprise at finding it there.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe face is the thing that will keep you. Warm tan and white beagle markings painted in careful short strokes, dark expressive brows that give him a weight of feeling well beyond what a carved object has any right to carry, and amber eyes with just enough depth in them that you find yourself checking his expression differently depending on your own mood. That is the mark of portrait-quality folk art. It reflects something back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSet him on a study desk and he belongs immediately among the books and the leather and the objects that have been collected rather than bought. On a mantel he anchors one end with complete authority. On a shelf between other Carviani figures he starts to suggest a whole world of characters with overlapping histories. He does not need explanation or context. He arrives already fully formed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHe is the gift for the beagle person, the hunting enthusiast who appreciates objects made with genuine craft, the collector of folk art who has been looking for a piece with this kind of character, or simply someone who loves a well made thing and recognizes one on sight. Because each piece is carved and painted entirely by hand, the exact weight of his expression, the particular set of his scarf, and the placement of every painted detail will belong only to this carving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eType: Hand carved and hand painted wooden beagle statue, folk art figurine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Solid carved wood, hand painted throughout in fine layered detail\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eColor: Warm tan and white beagle markings, deep forest green coat, cream striped waistcoat, black lapels and boots, grey rifle with gold scrollwork engraving\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: Approximately 8 inches tall\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDetail: Engraved gold scrollwork on gunstock, individual painted scarf fringe, painted boot stitching, facet carved coat surface, layered amber iris painting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAccessories: Carved rifle held across the chest, carved hat held under the arm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStyle: Folk art, anthropomorphic, hunting gentleman, English countryside aesthetic, collector sculpture\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: Hand painted and sealed.
