About the Item

Beautiful mid-century hand-carved wooden sculpture depicting an abstract couple in dance. The flowing lines and organic form capture a sense of movement and intimacy, while the smooth finish highlights the natural grain and warmth of the wood. Likely created in the 1950s or 1960s, this piece reflects the era’s appreciation for simplicity, craftsmanship, and expressive design. A small repair is visible on one dancer’s arm, consistent with age and use, but it remains a lovely and display-ready example of mid-century carving. Perfect as a decorative accent on a console, bookshelf, or side table—this sculpture adds a touch of warmth and artistic charm to any space.
