About the Item

Behold a piece of enigmatic allure, the "Cavalier Sans Tête" – a headless, armless, and legless carved wooden torso that exudes an aura of mystery and ancient sophistication. Mounted on a sleek black lacquered custom base, measuring 10" x 18" x 2", this torso stands as an impressive artifact with dimensions of 10" x 20" x 31", commanding attention and contemplation. The absence of head, arms, and legs on this carved torso only amplifies its dramatic presence, turning it into a stunning sculptural piece that celebrates the beauty of incomplete forms and the stories they carry within their silent composure.

Imagine this striking sculpture anchoring a contemporary living room, nestled among modern furnishings where its raw beauty and rustic charm can be fully appreciated. It serves not only as a focal point but as a bridge between the past and the present, bringing a layer of depth and texture to the home. As a conversation piece, it's unmatched, drawing the eyes and sparking the imagination, inviting a journey into its origin and the skilled hands that shaped it.
