AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Very decorative postmodern 'Swan Neck' hat stand bust and display head. The bust is made of plastic; probably cast high-gloss black resin. The sculpture is 55 cm tall, 14 cm wide, 20 cm deep and weighs about 5 kg. It probably dates from the 1980s and was likely made in France.

This bust was made as a retail display, and probably as a hat stand. Of course, ties can also be tied or jewelry displayed with this bust.

You could call the style postmodern, made in the vein of Camaflex / Lindsey Balkweill. This bust balances on the border between high-end retail interiors and minimalist interior art. The design reflects the iconic 'Swan Neck' aesthetic, strongly inspired by the elongated forms of Amedeo Modigliani and the Memphis Milano era.

This sculpture is made from high-quality cast resin (resin/fiberglass). The head features an elegant, elongated neck and has minimalist, subtle facial features (ears, nose, mouth and eyes) and a completely smooth finish without hair. The deep, high-gloss black lacquer creates a beautiful mirrored effect that catches light from every angle.

The bottom of the base is lined with the original green felt to protect delicate surfaces from scratches. The piece is in good vintage condition with a beautiful deep gloss. There are only minimal and appropriate signs of use visible, consistent with its history and use. Here and there you can see light scratches and specks, but that is minimal.

The bust will be carefully packed and shipped insured.

Seller's Story

I generally sell antiques and vintage products. But also products, sometimes from the 21st century, that I find particularly appealing. The products I sell are very diverse in nature; from lamps to side tables, from telephones to wooden carvings, from vintage kitchen equipment to Art Deco and Art Nouveau coat hooks, and everything in between. The things I buy are usually items that I personally find beautiful and that are of high quality. It often costs me to part with them! My expertise lies mainly in products from the 20th century. I ship in used boxes in combination with paper filling material, or plastic filling material that is inside boxes that are sent to me. The boxes are sturdy. Usually made of double cardboard. I ship, unless otherwise agreed, always within two days after purchase. I place great value on a friendly, decent and reliable contact with my buyers.
