AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Large pig statue, butcher shop statue.
Sold from the Netherlands.
Circa 1950

This statue is a vintage "Chef Pig" (cook-pig), a classic decorative piece that was often used as an advertisement sign for butchers or as a charming doorstop.
Today it would look fantastic in an outdoor kitchen or barbecue. Very suitable for the mancave as well.

Here are the main details of this specific item:
Material: woodcarving polychrome painted.

Function: Originally intended as a shop display or door stopper.

Features: The pig wears a traditional white chef’s coat, a tall chef’s hat, and often a polka-dotted neckerchief.

Dating: Many of these examples date from the mid-20th century (ca. 1930-1950)

Dimensions: large statue measuring 65 cm high and 25 cm wide. Weight about 5 kg.

Condition: in general fine, on the back a crack from dryness. Not restored due to time constraints. But certainly restorable.

Photos are part of the description.
These were taken under artificial light, colors may vary.

It will be well packed and sent by registered mail.
