About the Item

Signed on the side of the base, "F. Flacone" and "Orientale 1800", dated "1925". Carved out inscription on the bottom of the base, "Chiavari". (Chiavari is a small town in the Province of Genoa, Italy.) This remarkable hand-carved and dark-patinated wood sculpture, depicting a head of an Oriental man wearing a turban, is an absolutely unique piece of art that attracts an immediate attention of a viewer by its large scale, unusual composition, expressive face of the model and an original foreshortening turn of the head.
