No Horns, One Ear, Repaired Tail, Still Wonderful, Very Full of Life Carved Pine Cow Inuit dog sled carving 1850s) German block cube puzzleA bit wounded, yes, but such a wonderful, very gentle feeling, very cow like old carved pine cow. Looks to have once had both horns and ears, just one of the four remaining, and the tail re glued, too. Stands proud and sturdy still though, highly empathetic and very full of love. Terrific warm dry patina too. 7 1 4" l x 5 1 2" t x 1 11 16" w. Early 20th century, I believe.
