Wood carvings

Information:
Ivy is the son of Cyril Billiot, also carves the marine figures that form the basis of his father's work. His unpainted carving is difficult to distinguish from that of the father, and the pieces are not signed. If you meet the family, however, the artists will tell you who made which piece.
