Exceptional hand carved walnut Swiss Lion of Lucerne is extremely detailed from the lettering and Roman numerals at the bottom,his wonderful sad but cunning face to his wounded back. Every detail of the original large sandstone monument in Lucerne,Switzerland to commemorate the Swiss that died during the French Revolution of 1792 has been captured. Mark Twain was quoted as saying,"The saddest,most moving piece of rock in the world". This wood replica would make a handsome paper weight or desk accessory. Wonderful patina to the wood. Excellent condition. Measures 7.5L X 2D X 3.75H.
