Wooden Cockatoo Bird

Fair Trade
Hand Carved
Each Piece Is Unique
Different Wood Grains
Sustainably Sourced Wood

These lovely cockatoo carvings are all unique due to the parasite wood used to mount them on. The cockatoos are made in a beautiful two-tone wood that is left unstained to preserve the grain. The 'Parasite' wood forms in brown 'flowers' within the wood and is caused by a fungus in the wood. Don't worry there are no nasty bugs involved at all!! Due to the parasite wood being different for each carving the item you receive will be similar but not identical to that shown. The cockatoo is attached to the base with a wooden peg which allows you to change the alignment of each eagle as desired. We usually ship this item with the birds unattached for safety in transit. They are very easily attached to the base with a wooden peg that will already be attached to either the bird or the base. There will be a hole in the other piece to join the two together. Simply push the peg into the hole carefully but firmly.

Cockatoo Parrot Approx 30cm Size: H30cm x W14cm x D6cm

This beautiful cockatoo is hand carved for us in Bali in 'crocodile' wood. This type of wood is silky in texture and of a pale creamy white colour. The artist has cleverly captured the majesty of the bird and the attention to detail is superb. The carving has been lightly waxed to enhance the wood. As with all carvings keep away from heat sources such as radiators to ensure the wood does not over dry.

Customer Notice. Please note we take all pictures close up to fill the frame and thereby show as much detail as possible This is not indicative of size. We give the dimensions of the item within the description of the listing and it is the customers responsibility to check this before purchasing.

Part of the appeal of this statue is it's handmade nature. It is crafted using a natural product using hand tools in the traditional way. As such please accept that there may be minor imperfections in the wood which add to it's authenticity and ensure you are not purchasing a generic, factory-made product.
