About the Item

Antique Wooden Carved Sculpture of a Folksy Countrywoman A large traditional Black Forest style woodcarving of a farmer´s wife. Hand carved in Germany around 1920. A great addition to the rustic interior. Very good condition. Please contact us for a detailed condition report. The tradition of wood carving, using manual skills to make everyday objects and fine art sculptures, is found throughout Europe. The incentive to create not only useful but also aesthetically beautiful things, distinguishes the craftsman from the artist. In addition to the well-known Swiss wood carving artists, others can also be named in Italy / Tyrol with Steiner, in Germany with Madel and in Austria with Heissl. Their wood-carving art works with sculptures, wall plaques and reliefs enhance any interior design. artfour is an owner-managed trading company that sells Black Forest wood carvings, antler furniture and an impressive variety of unique decorative items.
