(Like a Milagro Now) Antique Carved Pine Articulated Leg with Rich Patina folk deco what a beautiful brush thisCertainly this leg once connected to a body, but I like it very much just like this feeling quite a bit like a milagro, which one might hang on the altar in advance of, say, a knee replacement! Great booted foot, rich dry patina, nail through steel loop at the joint holding tight. Late ish 19th century or so, I believe. 5 1 4" x 1 3 8" wide at foot. Excellent condition, rich dry patina.
