Ancient Irish Bog Oak Kingfisher Sculpture – Hand Carved Bird Art
$304.46
This kingfisher emerged from a piece of ancient Irish bog oak, preserved in Irish bogland for thousands of years. The beak points skyward, the smooth carved body rising from the rough fractured rock beneath — caught in a moment of stillness before the dive.
The contrast between the polished bird form and the raw ancient base is entirely natural. The bog oak provided the rock. The kingfisher was already waiting inside it.
Hand carved and wax finished in Co. Tipperary, Ireland.

Where are the materials sourced?
All the wood used in the sculptures in this shop has been sourced in Ireland, Tipperary if possible as that is where the shop is located. The wood is either taken from bogs and reclaimed land where it has been buried for thousands of years or more recent wood is from trees which have fallen or died. This ensures that the sculpture you order is as fully sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible.
