Vintage Handmade Miniature Wooden Sofa and Chair with Great Lines made in France with some clouding and dark

with some clouding and dark spots (between the layers

I love to think that making this carving is the first thing young Arthur started in the year 1940

which also bring the luminosity of the ivory into relief

Vintage Handmade Miniature Wooden Sofa and Chair with Great Lines made in France with some clouding and darkI really love these two, though must say it is the sofa that really sold me, which I think at full scale would make perfect museum seating, and also with those great curves feels a bit Botero esque to me. I'm not certain the age on these I might guess 1940s, but am not completely sure. Very nicely handmade, with tiny nails attaching the back of the sofa to the body, and sort of a whitewash stain over the wood. Sofa measures 10 1 8" l x 3 5 8" t x 3 3
