Carved and Painted Seagull on Driftwood antique pocket frame The objective is to remove

The objective is to remove all the pegs except one--which should be left in the center hole--by jumping any peg over its neighbor to eliminate it

or gophers (or heads of squirrels if one prefers to think of them

I believe there may be something carved in the bottom but I can't make it out if so

with just a tiny bit of loss to the gilding around the rim

Carved and Painted Seagull on Driftwood antique pocket frame The objective is to removeOne sees a fair number of seagulls on driftwood when poking around the coast of Maine, but this one struck me as quite lovely and nicely done, and definitely with some age to it. The gull is carved of wood, with the wings made individually and inserted into recesses carved in the body. The legs are steel wire, inserted into the driftwood, holding the gull firmly in place. Nice aging to the paint, and I think it's good from 360 degrees. Appriox 7 1 4"
