The Boss Rooster

Derrick Kaamasee

Animal: Rooster, Material: Pipestone

$140.00

is backordered. We will ship it separately when it becomes available.

A popular farm yard icon, a rooster struts around protecting its flock of hens. These super confident feathered friends dazzle with their sickle feathers, bright combs and wiggling wattles, as seen in Derrick Kaamasee's rich pipestone rooster. Extraordinarily etched plumage, bright blue turquoise eyes and all the personality you'd expect from these tough birds is captured in this approximately 2 3/8" tall, 2" wide and 1 1/4" deep piece. He carved it with a wonderfully turned head, a beak clutching a plump worm and clawed toes, spectacular. View item
