Vintage Clear Lucite Whale Functional Sculpture for Desktop or Vanity by Ritts
Located in Warrenton, OR
Vintage Clear Lucite Whale Functional Sculpture for Desktop or Vanity by Ritts Astrolite. UPDATE: Due to agreement with 1stDibs, we'll be staying through the end of the year. Perfect for the MCM affcionado who likes art and whales but whose space needs reqyure function as well, this lucite sculpture is made to hold pens or make-up brushes and look good doing it. (There is also a slit for the mouth for holding mail, cards, notes, etc.) The sculpture measures approximately 8.5 x 3.75 x 2.25 inches. Fairly good vintage condition. No chips or cracks. As is typical with these, there are visible scratches. There are also blemishes (for example, the underside appears to show evidence of a previous label) that could probably be alleviated by proper lucite cleaning/polishing techniques. Price has been adjusted accordingly. Of course, the pen and brush are just for demo and will not come with the sculpture. IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOLLOWS; PLEASE READ THE BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY. ABOUT OUR LISTINGS: -Measurements are approximate and generally represent the approximate widest/longest/highest areas of each item. -Colors on your monitor and/or in your environment may look somewhat different than in ours and often look deeper on dark backgrounds than they do on light backgrounds. -Please keep in mind that vintage items usually will show evidence of previous ownership, such as scuffing, scratching, and/or other wear such as dulling or marring on base, etc..

Unique Scandinavian Bird Sculpture Rolf Hansen Kongsberg Keramikk, Norway, 1950s
By Rolf Hansen, Kongsberg Keramikk
Located in Odense, DK
Playful unique bird sculpture in glazed chamotte ceramics by Rolf Hansen, Norway. The sculpture was handmade by Hansen at Konsberg Keramikk in the early 1950s. Rolf Hansen was a Norwegian ceramist. From 1947 he attended Kongsberg Keramikk until his death in 2004. Rolf Hansens works make people feel easy to mind, and motives of roosters and bulls were closest to his trademark. The source of inspiration for Rolf Hansen was Pablo Picasso. In 1949 he was in Vallauris in France and became acquainted with Picasso's pottery, and in the early 1950s Rolf Hansen made dishes and jars with abstract decor in his spirit. Rolf Hansen was one of Norways most popular ceramics...
