Handcrafted Wood & Folk Art Notice: As an independently handcrafted pre-owned wooden item, this frog couple inherently features unique structural and artistic characteristics typical of traditional folk craft rather than modern factory precision. Bidders should anticipate natural material and pigment variations. This may include visible wood grain, minor organic asymmetry in the carving, natural variance in paint application, and typical wear on the articulated limb joints. Over time, the tension of the strings or hardware holding the bead-style limbs may loosen slightly due to natural wood contraction or material age. Individual areas may exhibit light surface scuffs, minor paint wear, or faint handling marks consistent with previous display. The piece is structurally sound for decorative purposes but should be handled with the standard care appropriate for delicate vintage wooden artifacts. Overall condition grading is completely subjective; bidders must rely completely on their own evaluation of the provided digital photographs prior to placing a bid.
Color and Dimensions: Vivid hand-painted pigments, natural wood textures, and artisanal finishes interact with professional studio photography strobe lights and ambient room lighting dynamically. Actual paint shades, color saturation, and contrast may vary slightly in person compared to what is displayed on your mobile phone, tablet, or monitor screen due to specific digital device calibrations. The seller is not liable for subjective differences in color perception. If specific height, width, or base dimensions are not explicitly listed in the text, please refer to the auction photographs containing measurement indicators, measuring tapes, or rulers. All dimensions are approximate, and minor variances due to organic material shifts will not be accepted as grounds for a description dispute.
Bidders are strictly required to inspect all photographs carefully prior to placing a bid. The images constitute the primary, definitive, and final description of the item's physical appearance, paint integrity, and current state. By placing a bid, the buyer explicitly agrees that they have reviewed the photos, accept the item's current pre-owned folk art state, and agree that all sales are final. No returns, refunds, partial credits, or exchanges will be issued under any circumstances.
