ABOUT PRODUCTID 15950
This heron figurine from the 1960s stands as a considered example of Danish mid-century modern design, distinguished by a deliberate interplay of natural materials and refined proportions. The bird's body and base are crafted from teak wood in a medium brown hue with subtle reddish undertones, finished with a delicate semi-gloss and displaying a distinct, organic grain pattern. The head, neck, and elongated legs are shaped from brass with a golden, gently aged satin surface, exhibiting the subtle patina typical of the metal. The slender, eighty-five-centimeter silhouette, smoothly curved lines, and material contrast embody the hallmark of Scandinavian modernism of the 1960s, with seamless, precise joinery at the junctions of wood and brass. The sculpture rests securely on an oval teak base. It is preserved in excellent condition—virtually no visible traces of use, only minimal patina and aging consistent with its vintage provenance. The piece seems to narrate its own story, quietly recalling the restraint and lightness celebrated in the design language of the 1960s. Its form channels a subtly stylized vision of nature—warm teak, smoothly gathered into an organic body, offset by the elegant, shimmering arc of the brass neck. This is a figure that does not demand attention but rather hints at its heritage, evoking an era when modernism welcomed nature into interiors not directly, but through artistic abstraction.
