Mid - Late 20th Century South American Tribal Gourd Bowls Hand Carved Floral

About the Item

Stunning Mid to Late 20th Century South American Tribal gourd bowls with hand carved floral details, a pair. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that these are vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Mid-Late 20th Century. Did you get a good gander at these gorgeous gourds??? Actually, they’re vintage South American Tribal gourd bowls to be more specific, and aren’t they FANTASTIC?? We certainly think so!! Gourd art is an ancient tradition in Africa and Asia as well as among indigenous people of America including the highland people of Peru, Navajo, Hopi nations of the American Southwest, and the Nuxalk and Haida nations of British Columbia. Gourd crafting and painting has evolved from early hand carvings to modern day use, by some, of electric wood burners and high-speed pen-shaped rotary tools that can be used to inscribe almost any design. We have two sizes in this set one larger tilted bowl with a “perfectly imperfect” rough cut rim and one smaller tilted bowl also with a “perfectly imperfect” rough cut rim and a pointy lip or handle on one side. The undersurfaces are a natural-colored gourd with purposefully distressed dark brown hand carved floral designs and Tribal details, and they are incredible! And although we have them placed next to a soup can in a few photos, we certainly don’t recommend using them for eating purposes! They are best used as magnificent art & décor among other Tribal pieces or highlighted by themselves on a shelf, accent table, or in a display cabinet. Whatever way you display them, these gourds have got it goin’ ON! Don’t let these phenomenal Tribal gourd bowls pass you by! Make them YOURS!!

20th Century Asian Sculpture Guan Yu Chinese Warrior Hand Carved Rosewood

Located in Topeka, KS

Handsome vintage Asian Chinoiserie rosewood Guan Yu or Chinese warrior hand carved larger scale sculpture. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 20th Century. A warrior is one who sacrifices himself for the good of others. His task is to take care of the elderly, the defenseless, those who cannot provide for themselves, and above all, children- the future of humanity. This is a magnificent vintage Chinese warrior or Guan Yu sculpture comprised of stunning rosewood with intricately hand carved details and a removeable guandao (Chinese pole weapon). In Chinese culture, General Guan Yu represents loyalty and valor. People believe that by having his image in art or sculpture in their home will protect their family from harm. And while we don’t believe he is going to break out with any actual martial arts moves; his fearless presence commands the room and demands attention! You may notice that in some of the photos our warrior friend is holding his guandao upside-down, don’t judge! Even the best of warriors tend to get exhausted from a long day of defending humanity and protecting mankind. A guy can get a little turned around! Just look at his expression… he is OVER it!! His hand is even up gesturing as if to say, “Talk to the hand!” LOL!! He is handsomely dressed from head to toe in full body armor and his long beard or Fu Manchu is flowing in the breeze. He stands proud upon a rounded square base at about 24 inches tall, so he is definitely larger scale, he will be fabulous in ANY room of your home, and he is the EPITOME of Chinoiserie excellence! Don’t let this incredible hand carved rosewood Chinese warrior sculpture...
