Vintage hand-carved wooden mask / sculptural head, signed and dated “MW 59” on the back, indicating a 1959 studio craft piece. Measures 13.5” long and about 5” wide.
Solid hardwood with rich dark grain and smooth hand-finished surfaces. Strong mid-century modern design with abstracted facial planes and modernist primitive influence. Likely produced as a one-of-a-kind or small studio piece rather than mass production.
Condition is very good vintage with light surface wear consistent with age. Displays beautifully as wall art or shelf sculpture.
A striking authentic mid-century decorative sculpture for collectors of modern design, studio craft, or sculptural woodwork.
Ships very well packed via FedEx or UPS. Thanks!
