Unusual late 18th century hand carved fish or mythical sea creature ,c1780. Well carved with good detail to the scales, mouth, tail etc it us clearly hand carved and has a great naïve quality. The fish is mounted on a backing board and hook to enable it to be displayed and is deceptively heavy for its size. Overall condition is good, there a small number of woodworm holes on the backing board (not the fish) but these are long dormant and treated anyway. Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me if you would like to view the item or have any questions.

Size: 26cm tall/long x 11cm wide x 10cm deep.
