ABOUT PRODUCTID 5888
This African-style head sculpture, dating from the 1960s, is crafted from patinated plaster and mounted on a square pedestal. The primary color is a deep, matte black with subtle brown undertones; the deliberate patina gives the surface a mature, gently aged appearance. The form is marked by simplified, geometric facial features inspired by traditional African art—almond-shaped eyes, a broad nose, full lips, and stylized ears on a slightly elongated head. The surface is mostly smooth, yet subtle tool marks and irregularities highlight its handcrafted origin. The head is attached to a metal rod set into a solid, matte black base measuring 8 × 8 × 3 cm. The overall dimensions are 25 cm high, 13 cm wide, and 12 cm deep. The condition is very good—intentional wear, minor scratches, and small chips on the edges and base are visible, with no significant damage, emphasizing the sculpture’s authentic vintage character. This figure echoes the spirit of an era when, in the 1960s, European and American workshops drew inspiration from non-Western motifs, reinterpreting African forms
