About the Item

A remarkable pair of hand-carved distinguished gentlemen! Each bust, unique in its depiction, captures the essence of character through the masterful use of wood. The artisan's skill is evident in the intricate and delicate details carved into each figure, particularly in the eyes and facial hair, which bring these gentlemen to life with a realism seldom achieved in wooden sculptures. Each glance reveals a new facet of their personalities, from the depth of thought in their expressions to the shape of their profile. These busts are a testament to the traditional skills of wood carving, preserved in the portrayal of these stately figures. Made of solid wood, strong enough to be used as book ends. Perfect for collectors, these hand-carved busts offer a unique opportunity to own one-of-a-kind art that truly stands apart. Most likely late 19th Century, but possibly older. Origin: Spain. We know, it’s hard to find, one-of-a-kind pieces! Shop our listings for new inventory, curated from an Interior Architect and Designer’s POV. THE TASTEMAKER SHOPPE offers an exclusive mix of ‘new & old’ furnishings, founded solely on good taste, not limited by any style or era.
