It has been made for Liberty's in London. This lovely camel has both great aesthetic and decretive value. It has been made for the kids of the wealthy people that shopped by Liberty's. Underneath the leather, the hide is a very well-carved wooden sculpture which is why the sizeable camel has such realistic features. We feel that the maker of this work of animal art has beautifully captured the look and soul of this majestic desert animal. It also has its original glass eyes. Knowing that it was made and sold between the 1940s and 1950s it still is in a very beautiful condition. We have cleaned, hand waxed and hand polished it. Condition-wise, there will be some aged-related marks. There are no rips or tears in the leather.
