Description
Charming terracotta wall mask depicting a young woman with curly hair adorned with flowers.
Made in an Italian workshop around 1950, this model illustrates the Mediterranean taste for graceful and sensual forms, typical of the post-war period.
The piece is signed on the side, but the signature is difficult to read.
It demonstrates quality craftsmanship, inspired by the style of Goldscheider busts and the Florentine decorative tradition.
This mask is in keeping with the Italian decorative creations of the 1950s, blending late Art Deco influences with Mediterranean elegance.
The soft volumes, stylized features, and matte finish make it a characterful wall piece, ideal for a Mediterranean villa, a seaside house, or a vintage interior.
