1980s Italian Pop Art Sculpture of a Purse, Museum Mounted
A striking and possibly one-of-a-kind 1980s Italian Pop Art sculpture, designed as a purse and expertly mounted on a museum stand. This unique work stands 16.5 inches high, 8 inches wide, and 6 inches deep. The sculpture itself measures 12 inches high, 8 inches wide, and 2.5 inches deep, raised on a 6-inch square forged iron base for stability and display.
The purse sculpture is crafted from exotic polished and inlaid coconut shell, featuring a visually dynamic contrast of light and dark tones. A carnelian-colored Bakelite/Celluloid handle with elegant brass mountings adds a sophisticated touch, enhancing its vintage aesthetic. The intricate brass detailing and the rich patina of the materials contribute to its artistic appeal, making it a captivating addition to any collection.
A true collector’s piece, this sculpture merges functional design with avant-garde artistry, ideal for lovers of Italian Pop Art, vintage décor, or museum-quality decorative objects.
