A 1930s Stylish Art Deco Hand-Carved Figure of a Greyhound

About the Item

This 1930s Art Deco hand-carved figure of a greyhound is a quintessential example of the streamlined elegance and stylized forms associated with the Art Deco movement. The figure carved from wood light-toned with a smooth and refined finish that accentuates the craftsmanship. The greyhound is depicted in a highly stylized form, with elongated, simplified lines characteristic of Art Deco design. The figure emphasizes geometric shapes, fluid curves, and a sleek, graceful posture. The dog's body is arched, with a pronounced, elegant curve from its back down to its tail, emphasizing speed and grace. Its legs and tail are also stylized in a manner that reflects movement, typical of the streamlined aesthetic that Art Deco often embraced. The greyhound is shown in a standing pose, with its head raised, giving the impression of alertness or anticipation. The figure is mounted on a black wood base. The contrasting dark base enhances the visibility of the light-toned greyhound figure, anchoring it with a clean, modern aesthetic. The sleek design, clean lines, and elegant form of the greyhound reflect the Art Deco period's focus on modernity, luxury, and the beauty of stylized forms. Greyhounds were a common subject in Art Deco art, symbolizing speed, elegance, and refinement. This piece is a striking example of 1930s craftsmanship, blending naturalism with the geometric and stylized tendencies of the Art Deco era. The hand-carved figure has small signs of use and age visible on all photos.
