American Bird house 10" x 9.5" x 8"
A rare and unusual American birdhouse found on the Eastern Shore of Virginia more than 20 year's ago. Entirely hand made by a member of the Coard family, the piece is shown in as found condition. From the collection of a noted private collector in Richmond, this piece was featured in an exhibition of Raised Panel Furniture of Virginia at the Chrysler Museum, Norfolk. The birdhouse bares the distinctive style of 18th C. homes often found on the Eastern Shore. A true gem and a piece that would enhance any collection.
