A Pair of Mid-Century Modern Carved Wood Animal Sculptures
Description
A pair of 20th-century carved wooden animal sculptures, comprising a seated cat and a stylised recumbent hound. The cat is carved in the Egyptian Revival style, featuring a decorative pectoral collar with a scarab motif and stylised facial features. The piece is finished with a polished honey-toned patina. Web research identifies this style as consistent with Mid-Century Modern hand-carved wood figures, often produced in teak or walnut during the 1960s. The hound is rendered in a minimalist, smooth-form style with contrasting dark stains applied to the muzzle, ears, and paws. Neither sculpture displays visible signatures, maker’s marks, or edition numbers.
Cat: 30 cm (height).
