Featured 20thc female wood carving

something else i picked up at the boot(2)

it could be 21st to be honest, and not mad about it, but it does have some lovely curves

and just like her demure look

seems more care and thought taken on it than a home goods item

honestly couldn't even guess at an origin

can't find another similar so any thoughts or info much appreciated

 

and yes i had to straddle her

 

thats quite lovely actually

 

Wait ! .. What ?????

 

Oh Charlie, you made me blush. LOL

 

maybe just a case of ' morning wood ' ...!

 

she was just too long to photo her face,...... your honor

 

yeah its my knees in the 1st photo

 

a likely story .......

 

Enough chatter abt Charlie's 'Woodie' let's get back to this masterpiece. First I'll hazard a guess that may get me hooted out of the Forum-not a Rodin,Michelangelo or Bernini !
PS-This is a 'Woodie' in my neck o' the woods-

 

My initial thought was African but she looks very western ? I like her a lot .

 

Personally I don’t think African..Is it heavy or light? Looks light weight to me . Makes me think of a carving made of driftwood. I also like it.

 

Voodoo Gris-Gris Love Spell Wand ?

 

thanks mate, yeah body wise me too, but the face doesn't look african to me either

love how her arms cradle her belly underneath her dress

perhaps she might be pregnant

 

for its size i would say a light wood, but not as light as driftwood and much harder

 

Ok. Cool. A interesting thing

 

not your doing , I hope...

 

i'm just worried what the babys gonna look like

 

-keep it zipped mate !
