Stunning Art Deco Working Man Carrying a Hay Bale Sculpture on Brass & Iron Base
About the Item
Stylized 1920s sculpture of a 'working class hero'.
This unique work of art from the early 20th century immediately caught our attention. The powerful statement that the artist has made with this incredibly stylish and strong sculpture leaves a lasting impression. It seems that this amazing Art Deco sculpture is not signed and that is why we have named it 'ode to the working man'. We have no idea who created this wonderfully stylized, solid oak sculpture, but he may have left a clue. The bolts that go through the first brass plaque and down through the wrought iron plaques, all have different markings on top (see images 12 and 13). They could be masonic symbols or some sort of secret ciphers, we are not sure. What we are sure of is that this truly is a very well made work of Art by a very talented artist and it is of museum quality and condition. Somebody, somewhere must recognize this wonderful style (and therefor the artist), because anyone capable of creating such a stunning sculpture simply cannot be a 'one day fly'. If you are a collector of rare and great quality art (deco) then this sculpture could be the perfect addition to your collection.

Rare Art Deco Bookends, Indian Sculptures in Meditating Position on Marble Base
Located in Lisse, NL
Unique on 1stdibs and possibly worldwide.
It was in the early 20th century that meditation became known in Western society. Like many artists, the one who handcrafted the sculptures that were used to create these bookends probably traveled through Indonesia or India. These creative minds came back full of inspiration of all they had witnessed, because certainly back then, they entered a whole new world. The meditating males on these marble based bookends are made of silvered brass and the artist perfectly captured their serene faces, their turban head wear and their relaxed bodies. Sitting with their minds at rest and with their consciousness in the entire body or possibly focussed on breathing only, they would certainly arouse interest with western travelers...
