Folk Art Wood Carving Lion. Folk art Wood Carving Lion. Unsigned.. beautifully crafted wood leopard. Crafted in the style of Manuel Jimenez. The only marking on this piece is 711 marked on the stomach. The underside is dyed pink. Jimenez did not sign his early works so there is no guarantee of who the artist of this piece is even though it is consistent with his early work. Can only reference the artist as a similar style to his work. There are a few white assumed paint spots. They may come off with cleaning However cleaning was not attempted as seller is not familiar with this type of wood and best cleaning practices. One brown spot on the back of mane. See pictures. Please ask any questions or request additional pictures.
