BLACKIE

This first edition Collector Society Item was hand cast by Cairn Studio, Ltd. in October of 1988.

He comes with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.

He is completely free of chips, scratches, flaws, or defects of any kind.

He is approximately 8 inches tall and 6.5 inches wide at the base.

His creation story is as follows:

This woodsprite lives on rattlesnake Mountain (and shares the same name as my caretaker, Lonfred Black). He is known as Blackie because he gets all of his firewood and acorns from the black oak tree that grows on the highest point of Rattlesnake Mountain (Approx. 4000ft). Because the hawks like to circle this mountain, he has camouflaged his visible red hat with a black oak leaf, but was still spotted by two small snails who are hitching a ride on his basket. The coin from Romania shows a farmer planting, with the sun rising over the mountains. Blackie loves this tree so much that he is on his way to the foot of the mountain to plant offspring. He is happy to give the snails a ride - he knows that otherwise they would not make it to the valley below before the first snowfall.

I will take extra care in the packaging and shipping of this beautiful artwork.

Insurance at an addition charcge upon request.
