Wooden Figurehead Large
£158.00
A large wooden figurehead — a carved ship’s prow figure in the folk art tradition, bringing maritime history and sculptural character to a room.
Wooden figureheads decorated the prows of sailing ships for centuries — carved figures that were part talisman, part narrative and part decoration for the vessels that carried them across the world’s oceans. The Wooden Figurehead brings that tradition into the home as a sculptural ornament, the large version providing genuine presence on a shelf, mantle or cabinet.
Carved wooden figureheads have a distinctive quality: simultaneously figurative and abstract, with a boldness of form that comes from carvings made to be seen at distance on the water. At room scale, that boldness translates into a piece with real visual weight and character.
Part of the Folk range, available in large, medium and small. Works in coastal rooms, eclectic interiors and anywhere a sculptural folk art piece is wanted.
