Description
This is one of the most unique modernist owl sculptures you'll ever lay eyes on! It almost looks like an old Japanese ikebana vase. It is a hollow piece with two large holes as the eyes. Signed "Henrietta" at the bottom. Second digit of the year is missing but it looks like this piece was done sometime in the 90s. A great unique piece for any owl enthusiast! Please read the condition report very carefully.

Condition:
Alterations: Original Condition Unaltered
Imperfections: Some Imperfections
Condition Notes: The right side of the owl at the bottom edge has a repair that looks like it was done by the artist herself. Part of the owl is missing there and the surface got reglazed. Interestingly enough you don't even see this defect looking at the owl from the front and at first glance it looks it it's almost part of the design because the reglaze matches the rest of the owl so well. Other than this the owl is in excellent condition.
