This is the most fabulous and very rare vintage painted wooden leopard from Kashmir, Northern India. Dating from possibly the 1950s or 1960s, this stunning leopard is beautifully modelled, and really gives an impression of a powerful, muscular animal about to leap or attack. This dramatic, realistic leopard has been pictured by a table lamp for scale. Will look amazing in any room of the house but please note this is not a toy and should not be played with by children. After all these years he still has his fine, delicate teeth and handling it too much may damage them which would be a great pity. A good size at 27cm long. Extremely good vintage condition with no damage other than very minor spots of paint loss to a couple of paws and behind the ears but honestly barely noticeable and only adds to its vintage authenticity. A fabulous item - I have never seen another one like it. You find more modern rough simplistic carvings from India these days but they are a world away from this rare beauty....more
