Cow

£25.00

A standing cow with a long back, deep chest and head raised. The anatomy carries the piece — shoulder, haunch and belly are shaped as separate riveted sections rather than cut from a single silhouette. It has structure from every angle, while fine legs draw down to cloven hooves that hold it steady.

The hide is two-tone: dark oxidised bronze-black broken by broad panels of chalk white across the flank, shoulder and belly, following the markings of a dairy cow. Rivet heads remain visible along every seam. Long curved horns sweep up and out from a dark poll, the muzzle is worked open with shaped nostrils, and a fine tapered tail hangs from the rump with a kick at the tip.

The placement of the white panels depends on the salvaged sheet available to the maker. No two cows are marked the same.

A feature piece rather than a shelf filler. Good on a hall console, sideboard or kitchen dresser, and strong outdoors on a path edge, wall top or set among grasses.

Care

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth. When displayed outdoors, the surface will continue to weather and develop a natural patina. Position in a sheltered spot and bring indoors during prolonged wet weather if you wish to slow the process.
