Charming Early 20th C Western Meadowlark on Branch by Charles Weddle

Charming Early 20th C Western Meadowlark on Branch by Charles Weddle

$78.00

I purchased this very charming carved Western Meadowlark from a seller in Kansas--as it should be, as it's the Kansas State bird.  Folky but finely done, and with radiant yellow belly, I believe it is about half scale of the actual bird--4 5/8" from tip of beak to tip off tail feathers. It is signed on the underside of the branch to which it is attached by Charles Weddle, who I understand was an early 20th century Kansas based folk artist.

Great condition. 4 5/8" beak to tail, 2 3/4" tall, 3 1/16" wide as mounted.
