Mini Quail Standing

The California Quail with it's distinctive curved plume, and regal stance is a favorite item to perch among your home decor. Birds are popular for decorating this year and we're delighted to offer a large selection of beautiful birds for your enjoyment. This popular bird is entirely hand-crafted with delicate carving, painted with incredible detail, and then finished with wax polish. Our wood-carved Mini Quail stands 3" tall, and can be placed near your favorite potted plant, atop of book, or in a spot that needs natural color.  These birds are fairly traded using sustainable softwood and non-toxic paints. 

Anna & David create unique birds derived from a meeting between indigenous folk art and western aesthetics. From home on Vancouver Island, surrounded by the sea, mountains and an abundance of birds, they have much to inspire them and offer designs that bring simple yet refined examples of natures greatest inspiration. They have been working closely with the same three families of carvers for over 7 years, drawing on the villages centuries old techniques to realize beautiful products. Using Albesia and Coffee wood, these fast growing timbers come from sustainable farming practices for continued harvest and regrowth.
