{"product_id":"antique-folk-art-whirligig-mechanical-figure","title":"Antique Folk Art Whirligig Mechanical Figure","description":"\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted folk art whirligig constructed from carved and assembled wood elements, designed as a wind-powered kinetic figure. The piece features a compact, box-like base supporting a vertical post and articulated upper structure, originally intended to animate through rotation when exposed to wind. Surfaces show evidence of hand shaping and simple joinery, with a utilitarian approach to construction that favors movement and durability over refinement. The form suggests a once-active outdoor decorative object, likely mounted in a yard or garden where motion would bring the figure to life. As it stands, the piece carries a strong sculptural presence even at rest, with its worn surfaces and mechanical intent clearly visible.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nShows moderate to heavy weathering consistent with outdoor use, including surface wear, oxidation to any metal components, and general age-related patina. Expected wear to moving parts, with possible loss of original paint or elements from prolonged exposure.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n13\" W x 16\" D x 11\" H\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMM - 20111 - 041026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor information regarding shipping, please visit our Terms \u0026amp; Conditions page \u003ca class=\"GeneratedLink\" href=\"https:\/\/industrialartifacts.net\/pages\/shipping\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Industrial Artifacts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43975239499819,"sku":"20111","price":2650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0194\/8170\/files\/4bcecd8a-64cf-5ed2-a140-306f7130ac7d.jpg?v=1777058982","url":"https:\/\/industrialartifacts.net\/products\/antique-folk-art-whirligig-mechanical-figure","provider":"Industrial Artifacts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
