Description from the seller
Wooden model inspired by the great American hardtops of the 1950s – 1:16 scale
Wooden model inspired by the elegant American hardtops of the mid-20th century, characterized by elongated proportions, clean surfaces, and a striking presence. The flowing lines and the imposing profile evoke the style and prestige of automotive design from the late 1950s to the early 1960s.
Made from solid mahogany wood and finished with natural oil, the model highlights the warm tones of the material and the richness of its grain.
The bodywork and the wheels are carved from a single block, emphasizing the sculptural character of the object and the continuity of the forms.
