A BRONZE WALL PLAQUE WITH RESIN INTERIOR FROM THE RENOWNED `WILD GOOSE STUDIO`(EST 1970),IN KINSALE,COUNTY CORK,IRELAND.
IT IS CAST BY HAND FROM AN ORIGINAL CARVING BY THE FAMOUS IRISH SCULPTOR OISIN KELLY(1915-81).
THE WORDS IN GAELIC ARE, N`IL AON TEINTEAN MAR DO THEINTEAN,WHICH TRANSLATES AS `THERE IS NO FIRESIDE LIKE YOUR OWN FIRESIDE.
THIS PARTICULAR PIECE FROM THE WILD GOOSE STUDIO,IS NO LONGER LISTED SO PRESUMABLY IT IS NO LONGER PRODUCED BY THEM,WHICH SEEMS TO BE BORNE OUT BY THE FACT THAT IT SEEMS TO BE VERY SCARCE? THE PLAQUE MEASURES 26cm by 19cm APPROX,AND IS CURVED GENTLY IN BOTH DIRECTIONS.
THE PLAQUE IS IN GOOD CONDITION OVERALL,AND WOULD MAKE A NICE ADDITION TO YOUR WALL. £10 OR MAKE AN OFFER. I,M HAPPY TO POST THE ITEM FOR THE ADDITIONAL REQUIRED POSTAL CHARGE. PLEASE E-MAIL FOR CONTACT DETAILS. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING. ;
