Just what I needed with all these bears about.
A hunter with a gun!
16cm high, it has amazing detail for something so small.
Black Forest or Anri carving.

Thank you
Update:
I've since seen this same figure for sale twice, one was as well done as this but the other was terrible in comparison. As with all hand made things, the finished item depends on the skill of the artist.
Just needs a dust, surely. Cotton bud. No product.
Clever carving .... Intense !!!!
Thanks Kevin :) a cotton bud and water, i'll give it a go, if I get brave enough. I'm in awe, to get so much detail on something so small
It is really fantastic Fran. Exceptional carving - so much attitude and personality.
Watch out bears!!!
Thank you Karen :)
I missed this one, Vintagefran, and I couldn't tell you if this is Anri or not, but will post the same information as on the other thread, from my Kovel's newsletter today:
