Vintage MCM Brutalist Copper Daffodil Flower Sculpture on Italian Marble BaseThis vintage Mid-Century Modern piece features a stunning Daffodil Flower Sculpture. The statue itself is made of copper that has been hand sheared, crimped, welded, and torched to achieve its iridescent coloring and then lacquered to protect the luminous finish. The weighted base features a fine white marble made in Italy and includes the initials "LC" etched on the top (artist unknown). With its Brutalist styling, this unique sculpture would make a perfect addition to anyart or metalwork collection.
Dimensions/Measurements: 12"H x 11"W x 11"D (approximate) Note: To protect this sculpture during shipping, the leaves will be tucked slightly toward the center stem. The copper is flexible, so after unwrapping each leaf can be bent and molded to your preference. Condition: Great condition, vintage copper statue with light signs of patina for age of piece (refer to photos).
Brutalism is a style that emerged following WWII and grew in popularity from the 1950s thru the 1970s. Its emphasis was on materials, textures and construction, producing highly expressive forms. Copper was a material often used due to its ability to be hand-formed, heated, and burned. The melting process creates smooth, yet nubby edges, that are ideal for the aesthetic of these raw sculptures.
