This adult and highly realistic dromedary or camel has both great aesthetic and decorative value. They were made for the children of wealthy shoppers at Liberty's. Beneath the leather is a beautifully carved wooden sculpture, giving the robust camel such realistic features. It is a very realistic figurine of a good size, and it also retains its original leather, making it even more rare. We believe the creator of this animal artwork has beautifully captured the look and soul of this majestic desert animal. It also retains its original glass eyes. Knowing that it was made and sold between the 1940s and 1950s, it remains in very good condition. See less
