Few birds capture the beauty of nature quite like the Northern Cardinal. With its brilliant red plumage and familiar song, the cardinal has long been associated with hope, love, renewal, and the enduring connection we share with family and those we hold dear. For many, the appearance of a cardinal serves as a comforting reminder that loved ones are never far away.
This handcrafted cardinal is available in carefully selected hardwoods, including Oak or White Oak, whose warm natural tones and distinctive grain provide a beautiful interpretation of this familiar backyard visitor. Select versions feature a hand-painted artist's accent on the wing, adding the cardinal's signature red while allowing the natural grain of the hardwood to remain visible throughout the carving.
Each cardinal is individually cut by hand on the bandsaw, shaped, sanded, and finished to showcase the character of the wood - red feather accents are oak as well. The understated silhouette captures the cardinal's recognizable crest and profile while allowing the hardwood itself to provide much of the detail.
