Swan High LIMITED edition by Ostheimer

Bought this for my desk and the raised head posture is what sold me, it genuinely looks alert rather than just decorative. The wood grain differs slightly from my other swan, which I actually like since they don't look like a matched pair.

The way this swan's wings are carved gives it such a defensive, ready-to-flap stance that it actually looks like it's about to hiss at me. It's a charmingly dramatic little piece.

This swan has such a wonderful personality description on the box; I love that it actually feels weighty and solid in my hand, not hollow at all. It's become a calm little desk mascot that makes me smile whenever I see its raised head.
