About the Item

Of German origin this figure would likely have sat either on the shop counter or in the window of a pharmacy of sorts. Dressed in traditional period attire holding an oversized mortar and pestle. Hand carved from a single piece of oak displaying a wonderful, aged patina. Size in inches: H 20” x W 9” x D 4.5” Period: 19th century Material: Oak Origin: Germany Condition: Aged Condition Report: Completely solid in structure and form, with a deep patination and natural age across all the figures surfaces. Naturally, aged wooden grain knots and splits across the figure.

19th Century Hand Carved Ludovic Gavioli Organ Figure
Located in London, GB
19th Century Hand Carved Ludovic Gavioli Organ Figure Quite simply, she is beautiful and graceful. This amazing example of a late 19th century hand carved sectioned pine organ figure was produced by the world-renowned Ludovic Gavioli. The detail and expression on her face is what makes this example so delightful, an air of beauty and lifelike appeal in her expression.

Giacomo Gavioli (1786-1875) was considered the greatest of all band organ...
