$80 · Ellero Beaver Figurine Nickel Ore Hand Carved in Canada RARE

Very rare nickel ore carving possibly done by Peter Ellero. This piece measures about 6" wide x 3" high. Zooming on the pics will show many gold sparkles. The base is VERY full of sparkles. Reminds me of iron pyrite (fools gold) ! There was very little to find searching this item. I found several carvings from granite attributed to Peter Ellero but none out of metal. There is a monument company by the name of Ellero in Sudbury Ontario and when I called them, I found that yes, they have created carvings like this. And that although they had some carvings in stock, nothing has been created recently. A wonderful fun piece! Also VERY weighty for it's size - 976 grams This is a fantastic collectable carving! From a rating of Poor-Fair-Good-Very Good-Excellent-Mint This is in EXCELLENT used vintage Condition Pick up is in Fenwick.
