The Downy Woodpecker in Wood — North America’s Favourite Garden Visitor, Carved by Hand

Small, bold, and instantly recognisable — the Downy Woodpecker is one of North America's most beloved backyard birds. Its crisp black-and-white plumage and flash of red make it a joy to spot, and now it can live permanently on your shelf in this Hand Carved & Hand Painted Basswood Downy Woodpecker Figurine, mounted on a rich, separate Black Walnut Base that gives it the display presence it deserves.

At 4.5 inches long, this is a generously sized piece with room for every detail — the barred wings, the spotted tail, the characteristic compact body. Carved and finished entirely by hand, each figurine carries the subtle marks of its maker. No two are identical.
