Up for your consideration is a stunning French brutalist hand carved wooden bust of a Saint from the early 1800’s. This was picked up by my Grandfather somewhere in his many travels. He was a British Military Officer during World War II and later a Diplomat. This has been displayed in my home for many years. I put my hat on it when I come in for the day. It is heavy for its size. It’s most likely French and from the late 1700’s to early 1800’s. It likely came from a church. It could possibly be a hat mold. It works very well as a Stetson hat holder. At least that’s what I do with it. This antique 1800’s hand carved wooden Saint bust sculpture statue is a unique and one-of-a-kind piece of art from France. The medium-sized statue measures 12 inches in height and features intricate details, showcasing the craftsmanship of the Neoclassicism/Romantism period. This original statue, carved by a lost artist, is a beautiful addition to any art collection, reflecting the cultural significance of the era and the artistry of its time. From my personal collection. New items listed every week. Many loyal repeat customers. You never know what will be for sale.

Rare 1800s Carved Black Forest Sculpture, Cock Fight with Basket, Cigar or Cache. Super Mid-1800s Carved Wood Black Forest Sculpture, Cock Fight with Basket, Cigar or Cache Pot. All items and photos are the express property of Antiques & Uncommon Treasure. No reproduction without prior written consent. We’ll be sending out sale notices and special deals to our’Favorites’ customers. While I’m quite certain this was originally made to be used as a cigar server for table, with that beautifully carved basket the perfect size to hold a handful of largish after-dinner cigars, it would be equally fabulous to use as table centerpiece with a floral or dried flowers bouquet mounted into that basket. The carving is exquisitely done. I don’t see a signature, but this is of the quality you’d anticipate from a famed carver who would take price in signing his work. The piece is also quite large. Not the smallish rooster & bucket type we see regularly, carved and popular much later in the century, but a mid-1800s work of Animalier artistry one seldom finds. The base is 11 x 7.5. Very good condition for age and type, and were it not for the broken wing, this one would be excellent. Alas, it’s got the loss and is certainly a carving worthy of having restoration done if you’re a serious collector, or it’s wonderful as you see it, too, for use as a table centerpiece, just arrange your flowers and vines to take attention away from the carving’s one flaw. Big and impressive, heavy solid old forest natural growth wood in this one, too. Entirely carved from one big chunk of wood, the detail on the primary rooster is truly incredible. And the basket is detailed like no other. Our photos do not show this one nearly as well as it shows in person. A very dark stain, it’s hard to show the detail as your eye will take it in. We’re easy to deal with. You are very important! Our fine inventory is very important. And your ranking of our performance is also very important!
