    This is a recent purchase. The artist Abe Patterson is well known. This piece measures 10 1/2" tall. I was surprised that I couldn't any examples to reference a price. Any thoughts? image.jpg image.jpg

    LOL! While I won't call a moose "cute," that one does have an extraordinarily benign expression. I think her name is Miranda...

    The artist may have been well known in a small market area.
    His works are online , but they don't seem to have been traded in a long time.

    This article mentions a piece being sold. It doesn't tell the price, but it does say they negotiated the price for 13 years before make a deal. I'm assuming it was a considerable amount of money. However, the piece is clearly way nicer and larger than my moose. There is one like mine on worthpoint.

    Google shows several larger carvings as well as some smaller ones.
    They all seem to be in museums.

    Thanks! Not too bad. It would be a good piece to hold on to.
