Antique Swiss or German Black Forest Styled Hand-Carved & Painted Pedestal

About the Item

This antique hand-carved and polychromed painted pedestal is unsigned, but presumed to be either Swiss or German and date to approximately 1920 and done in the traditional, Black Forest style. The pedestal features a hand-carved young male peasant standing against the squared and tapered column, and has four hand-carved and painted faces, one on each side. The sides of the columns are decorated with applied carved stylized torches with a gilt finish and a scrolling leaf pattern to accent the base. This pedestal was likely made originally for a clock given the size of the top, but could also be used for a small planter, lamp or candelabra.
