Description

View VTG Pair Hand-carved Wooden Busts African Style Mid-century Folk Art Sculptures with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Great for collectors of African art, ethnic decor, or bohemian interiors. Note: These are decorative reproductions, not authentic ceremonial artifacts. No major breaks or repairs. Captivating vintage pair of hand-carved wooden busts in a classic African tribal style, depicting stylized adult figures – two female pairs. These mid-century folk art pieces showcase elongated faces with closed eyes, ridged and textured hairstyles representing traditional braids or patterns, and expressive mouths: with an open-mouth detail for a dynamic, emotive look. The shoulders are sculpted with simple garment-like folds, adding to the ethnographic appeal. • Material: Solid hardwood (possibly ebony or teak, or similar dense wood), showing natural grain, aged patina, and a polished finish. • Size: Approximately 6-7 inches tall (see measurement in photo). • Condition: Good vintage condition with expected wear from age, including minor scratches, nicks, small imperfections from carving. No major breaks or repairs. • Style/Origin: Mid-20th century (likely 1950s-1980s) tourist or export art, hand-carved in Africa (possibly from regions like Kenya, Tanzania, or West Africa). These types of carvings were popular souvenirs, inspired by tribal aesthetics but crafted for decorative purposes. Great for collectors of African art, ethnic decor, or bohemian interiors. They add a touch of cultural intrigue and artistic warmth to shelves, mantels, or display cases. Note: These are decorative reproductions, not authentic ceremonial artifacts. Condition: Used.
