I might guess 1970s-80s or so

but structurally sound and I think still pretty great looking

as if he might be holding up anything with a combination of pride and awe and reverence

Beautifully Humble Carved Folk Art Gull in Great Paint B&G Denmark I might guess 1970s-80s orPure love for this gull humble but completely satisfying, with the roundedness of its yellow beak together with the soft yellow and gray and white finely alligatored paint of the body, making it feel quite singular and special. Plus two soft black dots for eyes and a bit of black detail at the tail. Lovely. Stands 5 3 8" t on base, which surely is newer than the carving. Bird itself is 4" tall measured on the square; 4 1 4" from top of head to tail
