Description
This stunning pewter turtle is a rare and exquisite piece of artistry, a true masterpiece of the 1960s Danish Modern movement. The era's emphasis on minimalism, functionality, and organic shapes is perfectly embodied in this piece. It can be purely decorative or a functional sculpture to hold small items like paper clips, business cards, or jewelry. The possibilities are endless!
The light makes the neck appear as if it has a dent but it does not. It only has a few minor scratches on its back but you can only see if you look very closely. I can't make out the signature, so priced accordingly.
