DescriptionA small and delicate carving of a burro (donkey). The donkey is facing forward with its head slightly bent down. It has large ears, a dark brown mane, and has its tail tucked between its legs. The burro's front legs are stretched forward while the back legs are bent as if the animal was halting quickly. It stands on a naturally formed wood base.On View
