Mid-century folk art/outsider art figure with outstretched arms holding a ribbed green bowl, and a second bowl balanced on the head. Constructed from wood, metal, and molded plastic, mounted on a square base. Decorative and functional, this piece could be used as a candy dish, nut bowl, or simply displayed as a conversation-starting sculpture. Excellent example of playful mid-century design blending art and utility.
