📝 Description:

Offered is a vintage hand-carved wooden folk art wall plaque, carved from a single solid slab of wood and finished in rich earth-tone paints. The design features stylized tribal figures in profile with a striking animal head motif at the top, rendered in deep relief with cut-through negative space.

This piece shows all the hallmarks of mid-20th-century Latin American folk art, likely Mexican or Andean in style, created for export and interior décor during the 1960s–1980s. The back is left unfinished with visible carving marks, confirming authentic hand workmanship, not mass production.

The carving has excellent depth and weight, making it a standout accent for Mid Century Modern, boho, brutalist, or primitive interiors. It displays beautifully on its own or as part of a curated folk art wall.

📏 Measures approximately 16–16.5 inches tall and 5.5–6 inches wide.
📦 Ships carefully packed and fully insured.
