Hand carved slingshot representing a boy eating an ice cream. Notice the splendid carvings that highlight the shorts and shirt that the boy is wearing. He is holding the delicious ice cream with his two hands. Slingshots are very common hunting weapons still used in the Guatemalan Highlands. Young boys like to catch small birds, lizards or even mice with their slingshots and they customize them with a special look. Patina all over the piece denotes use and age. Please notice that the price includes FREE USPS Shipping!
