A Wonderful Antique 18th-19th Century Carved Wooden Face Of A Woman With A Folk Art Aesthetic.

The expressive, stylised features suggest it may have served a decorative or symbolic purpose, possibly designed to convey watchfulness, ward off evil, or serve a moral or religious function.

In folklore, an open mouth symbolises a shout of warning, eternal vigilance, or mockery of evil, all intended to ward off malevolent spirits.

A favourite recent find.

Condition is good, commensurate with age. Has all the wear you’d want from an 18th-19th century piece.

Measures 17cm x 13cm x 3.5cm

Weighs 233.02 grams
