ABOUT PRODUCTID 16910
This ceramic head, produced by Royal Delft in the Netherlands during the 1970s, exemplifies minimalist functional sculpture rooted in mid-century modern design. The proportionate silhouette features gently abstracted facial lines—closed eyes and a calm expression—highlighted by a high-gloss white glaze that imparts a luminous, almost reflective clarity to its form. The scalp area is adorned with a subtle geometric texture evoking short hair, which contrasts with the perfectly smooth cheeks and slender neck. Originally intended for practical use—such as a stand for headphones, wigs, or hats—the piece also naturally assumes the role of a decorative sculpture. Crafted from high-quality ceramics, possibly porcelain, the object is entirely smooth, free of imperfections, and showcases the pure, even tone characteristic of its era. It remains in excellent condition, with no visible signs of damage or age—its surface and stylistic features preserved in their authentic, unaltered state. The form of this head quietly narrates the late twentieth century—a period when function and form converged, and simplicity gained new depth. The restrained white glaze softly reflects ambient light, while the geometric detail atop the head references the spirit of a modernist atelier or designer’s workspace. The tranquil poise of its closed eyelids invites a moment of stillness, echoing the universal motifs of human presence explored in 1970s applied arts. A collectible Royal Delft head could serve as a gentle yet distinctive focal point in a living room, study,
