A lovely gift for the hummingbird lover or vintage Lucite collector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece is unmarked — Princeton Gallery originally identified its work with paper labels and stickers, which are frequently lost over time, as is the case here. It has the deep, hollowed-out look traditionally associated with hand-carved Lucite pieces from the 1940s and '50s, and was in fact marketed as \"hand carved and hand painted.\" In reality, it's well documented that these pieces were shaped using a machine pantograph method and then finished by hand-painting artisans — a detail that doesn't diminish the craftsmanship, but is worth knowing for collectors. This is high-quality vintage Lucite, with the distinct heavy density that separates it from later, lighter-weight acrylic reproductions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse our shop for more vintage bird figurines and Lucite collectibles to round out your collection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Princeton Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43187882950865,"sku":"DC2176","price":33.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/1733\/8577\/files\/IMG_7823_07ec145c-bd33-4aa4-a596-42520e445c26.jpg?v=1784394578","url":"https:\/\/www.antigotrunk.com\/en-ca\/products\/sculpture-carved-acrylic-flight-of-the-hummingbird-princeton-gallery-vintage-1980s","provider":"Antigo Trunk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
