About the Item

A charming vintage mannequin from the 1950s, beautifully crafted figure is a perfect blend of functionality and folk art, making it a unique and striking decorative piece. The mannequin is hand-carved from wood and features fully articulated joints, this allows for a variety of poses, giving it a dynamic and lifelike quality. It's finished with a faded lacquered paint in a lovely sage green or blue-green hue, which has developed a wonderful patina over the decades, revealing the natural wood underneath in certain areas. The head, hands, and feet are painted in a lighter tone, with hand-painted facial features that give the figure a soulful, serene expression. The visible wear, including chipping paint and small imperfections, tells a story of its history and adds to its authentic vintage character.
