Pair of sculptural modernist carved wood bull figures, one standing and one resting, created in a simplified mid-century design language that emphasizes silhouette, proportion, and form over decorative detail. Displayed together, the two pieces create a strong visual conversation and read as a curated studio-art grouping rather than individual decorative figurines. Both are carved from solid hardwood with a deep brown finish and visible natural grain. The standing bull introduces height and tension, while the reclining bull adds mass and grounding – a complementary balance often sought in interior styling and design collections. These align stylistically with mid-century European and Scandinavian studio animal carvings and Hagenauer-influenced modernist forms, intended as sculptural objects rather than traditional décor pieces. Ideal for collectors of modernist design, interior designers, and curated mid-century interiors. Works beautifully on a console, shelf, or desk as a cohesive sculptural pair. Feel free to send a message should you have any questions or would like additional photos. Thank you for your interest!

These stunning sculptures, representing a Balinese man and woman in traditional ceremonial attire, are a perfect showcase of the island’s legendary woodcarving craftsmanship.

Hallmarks of Authenticity & Age. These pieces date back to the 1930s, a period renowned for flourishing traditional arts in Bali as tourism opened up the region to collectors from around the world. The distinctive carving style suggests influence from the Klungkung region, long known for royal court artistry and refined detail. The carved bases (as shown in photos) are traditional to Balinese woodcarving and help to prevent cracking in tropical climates-a detail unique to authentic works from this era. Beautiful Patina & Condition. Decades of gentle aging have given both busts a rich, warm patina that only genuine vintage teak can achieve. The wood grain is tight and glowing; minor wear is present, entirely in keeping with their age and enhancing their story. Collectors and historians note that, during the early 20th century, high-quality Balinese busts like these were carved for travelers and patrons-blending both ceremonial symbolism and an idealized portrait of Balinese nobility. Pieces from this period are now highly sought after for their expressive detail and the connection they offer to Bali’s golden age of wood art. Material: Solid teak wood. Origin: Bali, Indonesia, c.

Offered here is a rare matched pair of hand-carved and polychrome painted wooden figures by listed American folk artist Adrian R. Both figures are signed “ARW” on the underside of the feet and date to approximately the 1920s-1930s, placing them among his earlier known works. The pair depicts a man and a woman rendered in Woodall’s distinctive faceted carving style. Both figures stand approximately 6.5 inches tall and display exceptional detail including individually carved fingers and expressive, dignified faces. The pair displays particularly well together, with a clear visual relationship and balance. Original dry polychrome paint surface throughout. Condition is excellent for age with normal antique wear consistent with approximately 100 years of careful storage. These figures have been in the same Kentucky family for decades, inherited from a great aunt who knew Woodall personally. He worked on her family’s farm as a young man, and the figures were acquired directly from the artist during his lifetime. This direct, personal provenance connecting the figures to the artist is exceptionally rare. Adrian Woodall was a self-taught sculptor born in Christian County, Missouri. Originally an optometrist, he began carving professionally in 1927 and eventually relocated to Florida, where carving became his livelihood and he taught wood sculpture at Florida Southern College. This pair is offered together and will not be separated. Photos are of the actual item you will receive. Please view all photos carefully as they are part of the description. Additional images or information available upon request.
