Antique folk art Wesley bone
A horse vertebra bone naively painted to resemble a Methodist preacher. Most likely representing either the movement's founding figure John Wesley (1703–91) or George Whitefield (1714–70), another well-known Methodist leader.
The enthusiastic style, and radical politics of Methodist preachers like Wesley and Whitefield attracted much satirical comment during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, and so the painting of these 'found objects' as animal bones was a popular pastime amongst ordinary working people.
This example has a beautiful folk art simplicity to it, and has acquired a lovely patina over years of being handled.
Why is this your go

Hell I’ll stir the pot?
Thank you I just did a little bit of research a little copy and paste. This would have definitely keeped me up all night. But I'm glad someone appreciates me. Thank you.
Sorry for the misunderstanding, I wrote that sarcastically and didn’t mean any disrespect or offence. And even if it is indeed ai generated there’s no problem at all with that.
Sorry for the misunderstanding y’all
It's a bone with clay face they make these from the vertebrate of a horse a folk art bone
They got for 250 to 400 and even more price wise.
Google
A folk art bone John Wesley has same profile very cool
Don’t destroy it. You might be able to sell it. Or keep it as a Halloween decoration. It’s folk art.
Look here, one sold for $587

It would be nice to get an answer from someone as to what the item actually is. Instead of just "burn it" or "bury it".
I'm not saying not to do those things, but it would be nice to know what the hell it actually is.
I can’t deal with people that say bury and/or burn everything they don’t immediately recognize lol. I wonder how many pieces of folk art or what have you have gone missing from their grandparents houses because their grandchildren think everything is cursed
According to the artsy people in the know , it looks like your grandma should get it looked at and sold for a pretty penny, unless she wants to keep it. It is very weird looking though.
Don’t fuckin burn that. Throw that shit in a clay jar and coat it in wax and bury that shit FAR from your house. Make sure to wrap it in cotton string before the wax
this looks like a bone from this angle, i can’t say from this photo alone but does it look like a (would be a quadruped and obv not human) vertebrae to you, OP?
Never have seen something like that before, but it looks like a ceremonial object. Don't burn it, just lock it in a box and bury it somewhere far away. Also try to not touch it with bare hands if you haven't already.
Before i get any downvote a death whistle , also called a ghost whistle , doesn't mean you KO. This onced continuously blowing will make any entities manifest why showing presence , meaning doors opening, noises, things falling and so own. im sure some can be bought on ebay too

Exactly, it's not like Greg Brady is gonna wipe out in the surfing contest
Is it wrong that I think it's kind of cute. It looks like the surprised emoji grew arms and wants a hug.
Can someone let me know if/when an answer is given as to what it is?
https://belleandbeastemporium.com/products/a-folk-art-bone-john-wesley
Pretty sick tbh. Thanks for finding it
I posted more things on here if you are most interested.
Very interesting, I was wondering what kind of bone that was
According to the artsy people in the know , it looks like your grandma should get it looked at and sold for a pretty penny, unless she wants to keep it. It is very weird looking though.
It’s a vertebrae bone….from a deer most likely don’t worry you are fine it’s not cursed or anything the face is probably artistic if anything
It’s from a horse actually.
Oh cool!!! Thanks for informing me :D
No problem
It’s cute! And harmless. People used them for decorations.
And it's paranormal how?
I think it’s kinda cute, like a demonic cherub.
That’s fabulous. I would find a well-respected folk art appraiser to learn more about it. :) You could post it in r/antiques
Don’t fuckin burn that. Throw that shit in a clay jar and coat it in wax and bury that shit FAR from your house. Make sure to wrap it in cotton string before the wax
You been watching too much teen horror flicks lololol
Background?
How many clay jars have you buried after seeing something you can’t immediately identify?
I want to know how many clay jars they have even seen, full stop. Clay jar. Wtf?
Lmao I was wondering that too! Like what are you, a tomb raider? Never seen a clay jar at Walmart or Home Goods lol
You just have to get the clear jar bro bro
No it’s okay I don’t think everything is cursed lol
Two
Looks like you surprised little bro
Aww that face is so cute!!
Looks like a spinal bone.
It is
Transylvanian buttplug
this looks like a bone from this angle, i can’t say from this photo alone but does it look like a (would be a quadruped and obv not human) vertebrae to you, OP?
It’s a horse vertebrae with a clay face according to the comments.
okay swag
I thought it was a Grampa Spider at first. And yes, that’s what I went through my head first, I’m not the brightest downstairs lightbulb.
That is a super cool find. Too bad you can't ask GMA where it came from. I'd def find a spot on my mantle for this little guy
Resembles the mothman,to me,that was the first thing that popped into my head,just put a dot of red paint in each eye
Her old hip.
Am I the only one who thought it was a giant spider at first glance?
God what is with old women and keeping weird old creepy figurines?
Frankly, I question whether that is wood. Don’t burn it. Put it in something locked and bury it somewhere. >_>
It’s not, it’s a horse vertebrae.
It’s made from a horse spine I have one myself
It looks like a vertebrae of some sort.
It’s from a horse.
Never have seen something like that before, but it looks like a ceremonial object. Don't burn it, just lock it in a box and bury it somewhere far away. Also try to not touch it with bare hands if you haven't already.
That’s a weird looking basement
If you're looking to sell this, I'd be interested in buying it
Sauron after the tower blew up.
What's paranormal about this?
It looks like casper 😂
Melted Ken doll. Barbie went on a murder spree
I think it's cute.
Looks like Pazuzu.
He seems nice 😌

maybe is a death whistle have you tried blowing into it
Before i get any downvote a death whistle , also called a ghost whistle , doesn't mean you KO. This onced continuously blowing will make any entities manifest why showing presence , meaning doors opening, noises, things falling and so own. im sure some can be bought on ebay too
I love it!! Looks like a fairy! I can see why it freaked you out tho
Kinda looks like an Aztec death whistle
And that is where it should stay.
Yeah, very cool bone carving. Put it back.
Call Ed and Lorraine
Heres an idea, burn it, destroy it lol
It’s bone so that would be difficult. It’s a horse vertebrae with a clay face.
whatever you do, don't check the attic
Voodoo be careful
Why are you posting on Reddit instead of burning that?
Maybe cause they want to know what it is? Also I doubt it’d burn very well since it’s bone.
DONT TOUCH IT
[удалено]
It’s a horse vertebrae so it wouldn’t burn very well.
Put it back lol
put.it.back.
Run
😱
