This antique folk art sculpture is a handmade, one-of-a-kind terracotta clay head/bust with a modernism vibe. It's bound to add... ummm… that “something unique” to your art and/or oddity collection. This piece dates from the 1940’s to 1950’s. That’s my best estimate as well of the opinion of an antique dealer that I hold in high regard. I couldn’t find a signature or anything about it, so I have taken the liberty to title the piece:
“DON’T TELL ME MY BABY IS UGLY” or... " OL' BLUE EYES "
The sculpture measures 12" x 9.25” (the head alone measures 8” x 6”). It’s displayed on an iron rod with a solid wood base. The sculpture weighs 5 pounds in its entirety. You’ll notice a bend in the iron rod. But this thing was made to keep on keepin’ on. This sculpture will speak to whom it must. And I’ll just leave it at that.
