Period: Mid-20th Century
Life-Size Melt-Coated Hand Wrought Bronze Rooster Sculpture circa 1960s
Located in Kilmarnock, VA
A bold and charismatic mid-century rooster sculpture, artist made hand-hammered, forged, and wrought in solid bronze, then melt-coated with additional layers of molten bronze to create its richly textured surface. Monumental in scale—life-size or larger—this piece embodies the spirit of modernist folk Americana, merging rural iconography with the expressive force of postwar studio sculpture. The rooster’s animated stance, raised tail, and crowing beak give it a dynamic presence that recalls Picasso’s stylized animal forms, while its weight and surface treatment nod to the work of Harry Bertoia, Paul Evans, and other makers in the 1950s brutalist tradition. Subtle reddish undertones in the tail feathers add warmth and depth to the oxidized patina. What sets this sculpture apart is not only its material complexity and sculptural technique, but also its provenance. It comes from the estate of Virginia folk artist P. Buckley Moss...

1960s Hand-Crafted Porcelain Italian Figure of a Penguin by Ronzan
Located in Aci Castello, IT
The 1960s hand-crafted porcelain figure of a penguin by Ronzan is a charming and meticulously detailed piece of Italian artistry. This figure showcases a realistic and expressive depiction of a penguin, capturing the bird's unique characteristics with precision. The porcelain is carefully painted to reflect the natural beauty of a penguin, with a sleek white body, gray belly, golden accents, and subtle shading to highlight the texture of the feathers. The figure stands in an upright pose, with its wings slightly spread and its head tilted, giving it a lifelike and endearing appearance. The craftsmanship of Ronzan is evident in the intricate details, from the delicate features of the penguin's face to the smooth finish of the porcelain. This figure would be a delightful addition to any collection of mid-century Italian ceramics...

Signed 24k gold infused Crystal Fish Sculpture by Josef Marcolin. original label
Located in Warrenton, OR
Signed 24k gold infused Crystal Fish Sculpture by Josef Marcolin. original label In addition to the signature on the bottom, the piece still has both of its original labels as well. In Murano glass work, fine gold dust inside the glass is called gold polveri. Perhaps this term was dropped by Marcolin due to the inclusions being more notable gold flecks rather than gold dust. Josef Marcolin (1933-2015), who originallly lived and was trained as a glassblower in Murano, Italy, moved to Sweden with his brother Benito in 1954. They made beautiful blown glass/crystal sculptures such as this one, which are known for their unique blend of Murano and Swedish style. In 1991 they moved back to Italy and continued to create for a short time under the name Sardinia Crystal...

An early and fully three dimensional sculpture by Edwin Scheier exhibiting a symbolic or mythological representation that represents the circle of life.

Edwin (and Mary) spent over a decade in the 1960's and 70's in Oaxaca, Mexico where he often worked with Guanacaste wood and local fibers, to great success. A perfect compliment to a mid century modern interior and a must have go along with any major mid century and/or Scheier ceramics...
