Beautiful bird mobile by Brian Dawson. Each bird is completely individual and the colour and graining will vary.
Each set of wings is cut from a solid piece of hard wood that has been seasoned for up to three years. Each bird is hand carved from solid wood, not steam bent, so that the lines of the grain follow the contours of the wing.
The birds are designed to hang from the ceiling and come in 79cm (31") and 97cm (38") wingspans. The birds are made to fly by a gentle pull on the hand made lace bobbin that hangs from the body. They are of a stylised form based on the seagull and were inspired by the book 'Jonathan Livingston Seagull' by Richard Bach.
