These eagle ornaments were produced in Germany in the late 19th to early 20th century and exported to the United States, where they were used as parade decorations, political ornaments, and patriotic display pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe feather detailing on the wings and body is beautifully sculpted and painted in rich brown tones with subtle highlighting, giving the piece remarkable depth and realism for a paper construction. The original red, white, and blue grosgrain ribbon remains intact and vibrant. The wire legs are missing, as is common with examples of this age, but the body and wings are solid and display beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt approximately 6\" across the wingspan, this is a wonderfully displayable piece — prop it against a book, frame it in a shadow box, or display it in a patriotic vignette. A genuine treasure for collectors of antique Americana, German folk art, or Victorian holiday ephemera.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntique German paper maché construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpread-wing eagle with detailed feather sculpting and painting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal red, white, and blue patriotic grosgrain ribbon intact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 6\" wingspan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire legs missing — noted in condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCirca late 19th – early 20th century\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Good antique condition; body and wings solid, legs missing, ribbon original and intact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Germany","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43453314891835,"sku":null,"price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/0296\/6843\/files\/IMG_1321.jpg?v=1775329602","url":"https:\/\/ro-and-bettes-attic-2.myshopify.com\/products\/antique-german-paper-mache-eagle-ornament-with-patriotic-red-white-and-blue-ribbon-6-wingspan","provider":"Ro and Bettes Attic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
