Edwin Scheier 1964 Modernist Sculpture of Man Riding Jaguar Which Has Eaten Man
Located in Mobile, AL
An early and fully three dimensional sculpture by Edwin Scheier exhibiting a symbolic or mythological representation that represents the circle of life. The bent wood, carving, piercing and rope work are all manifest at a high level in this quixotic almost whimsical work of 1964. 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...

Antique Nutwood & Oak Wine Theme Tilt-Top Table with Hand Carved Faun Sculpture
Located in Lisse, NL
Remarkable, practical and highly decorative antique table.
We are certain that this incredibly well-crafted and one of a kind table will appeal to both antique furniture enthousiasts in general AND to wine related antique collectors in particular. Because of its worldly subject matter, decorative appeal and top quality workmanship we expect people from all walks of life and from many countries across the globe to take a liking to this work of art and table into one. To us, this unique table ticks all the boxes and we, again, felt blessed for it to come our way. Just like, through our hands, we expect it to find exactly the right custodian somewhere in the world. The design, the workmanship and the symbolism in this antique, is what makes it so much more than just a table. The entire design and condition is remarkable, but the incredibly well carved faun or satyr sculpture in the stem of this table really is what takes it to the next level. The details of the faun (he is often found in sculptures together with Bacchus), his amazing polished surface and patina, but also the grape vines and bunches, they really are an absolute joy to own and to look at. Thanks to the perfect tripod base this table also stands as strong and firm as the day it was handmade all those decades ago. Apart from some truly minor wear, consistent with age and of being used and enjoyed, this 19th century solid wooden, wine theme...
