American Eagle 
Carved & Gilt 
C. Last Quarter 19th C
48" x 40" x 12" 
 
This enormous carved American gilt eagle was made during the last quarter of the 19th century, possibly for the U.S. Centennial celebration in 1876. The scale, condition, and untouched surface make it an exceptional piece of Americana! It would be hard to find an eagle of this size in this state of preservation.
