Description: I am offering for auction a free-standing hand crafted wooden sculpture titled "RAINBOW MACAWS". It is created in the intarsia style of woodworking. "Intarsia is a woodworking technique used to add depth to a figure or picture by assembling different sections of wood. To intarsia wood, you need to carefully plan your design, cut out individual pieces of wood, sand them down and fit them together like a puzzle. The sections are glued together and finished with a clear coat of varnish for protection." This gorgeous sculpture features six macaws in rainbow colors - they perch on a branch that is fixed to a sturdy base. According to the item description, cedar, mahogany and ishpingo woods are used to create this piece. To showcase the workings of this unique style, a flat paint is not used to color the birds. Instead, brilliant-colored natural dyes are used so that the grain of the wood shows through. This sculpture measures about 10.25 inches tall by about 10.5 inches long by about 1.25 inches deep. The rectangular stand measures about 2 inches by about 8.25 inches. This incredible figure is brand new, and I removed it from the packing for the first time to be photographed. Please know that you are receiving the exact piece that you see in the photographs. At this time, I do not ship internationally. This delightful piece will be shipped USPS ground advantage to the continental United States from our smoke-free shop and will arrive with the original foam insert in the original packaging. Please feel free to write with questions and/or requests for additional photographs. Thanks so much for your interest in my auction … good luck, stay well, and stay safe!
