Sculpture

This mid-century Scandinavian sculpture is composed of solid brass mounted on a rosewood base. The piece features a dynamic abstract form characterized by smooth, fluid contours and sharply defined angles, giving the impression of motion and balance. The polished brass surface displays a warm golden tone that contrasts elegantly with the deep brown hues and fine grain of the rosewood plinth.

The sculpture reflects the modernist Scandinavian approach to form and material, emphasizing craftsmanship and abstraction over ornamentation. Its biomorphic shape suggests an organic inspiration, typical of mid-20th-century Nordic sculptural design, where natural forms were reinterpreted into refined, minimal compositions. The interplay between polished surfaces and geometric reduction connects this piece to the broader aesthetic dialogue of postwar European modernism, where sculptors sought to capture both movement and structural purity.

The brass has developed a subtle patina consistent with age, adding depth and authenticity to the material. The condition is good, with minor surface marks and gentle wear that testify to its vintage character. The rosewood base remains stable, complementing the sculpture’s expressive yet balanced profile.
