Up for auction/sale is a beautiful, minimalist Mid-Century Modern hand-carved wood owl figurine. This piece features a striking, stylized brutalist silhouette with heavily pronounced vertical grain lines that masterfully mimic the texture of owl feathers.
The aesthetic is heavily reminiscent of the cryptomeria (Japanese Sugi pine) carvings popularized in the 1960s by artists like Gerd Untermann and mid-century import companies like Otagiri (OMC).
