AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Decorative cast iron doorstop modelled as a stylised crowing rooster, executed in the tradition of American Folk Art.

The simple yet expressive design, with its sweeping openwork tail feathers and hand-painted details, captures the charm of traditional country-house and farmhouse decorative arts. The piece retains traces of its original paint together with a naturally aged surface.

A well-developed patina, areas of oxidation and age-related wear contribute to its authentic character and decorative appeal. Equally suitable as a small doorstop, shelf display or collector's piece of folk-art cast iron.

Good vintage condition with original paint remnants, oxidation, surface wear and an attractive aged patina consistent with age and use. Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
