Old hand carved slingshot in the shape of a gorgeous dog sitting down. Notice the great carvings and big alert ears highlighting this beautiful piece. Red crystal spheres in his eyes give the piece a charming look. 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!
