Authentic Models Pirate Balance Toy |
Item Number: TM040 | Dimensions: | 16 1/4" Height 10 1/4" Width |
| Description: Pirates ruled the waves in early history. A lot of early folk art originates from coastal cities. Ports were usually crowded with pubs and inns, since most passenger and merchandise traffic took place over water. Many sailors, with plenty of time on their hands, were active amateur artists. It's interesting to reflect on the nature of folk art. Developed mainly for use in modest homes, old pieces are now fetching astronomical prices. Who knows what our balance toys will fetch a hundred years from now? Nautical themes are everywhere in folk art; trade signs, figure heads, weather vanes and whimsical whirligigs, sailors and fishermen wanted to know from which direction the wind was blowing. The tradition of balance toys going back to an obscure little sailor's pub, it makes sense that we add a fearless pirate to our rather unique collection. As our pirate floats over the open sea, he paddles back and forth and his parrot bobs up and down. The Pirate Balance Toy is hand made from recycled metal; Hand painted in the French tole style; Constructed of tin and iron; Colors are black, yellow, ivory, brown and blue. | |
