Lot 424: A Collection of Vintage Carved Wooden Decorative Items
A collection of vintage carved wooden decorative items and household accessories. The group features a hand-carved wooden mask of West African influence, fashioned from a dark-stained hardwood with elongated features and narrow slit eyes. This is accompanied by a rectangular wooden tray, which is decorated with intricate chip-carved foliate and floral motifs to the base and borders, incorporating two integral handles at the shorter ends. A novelty turtle-shaped bowl crafted from light-toned wood displays painted decorative details in red, green, and blue to the head and flippers. The lot also includes a pair of hand-operated fireplace bellows with black leather and brass-toned metal tacks, a small pine chest of six horizontally arranged drawers with turned wooden knobs, a turned wooden vase with incised geometric and floral patterns, and a simple wooden mallet. There are no legible maker’s marks, signatures, or labels visible on any of the items.
