Questions about this piece?
Description
A sculptural decorative spoon produced by Jac Art in the 1960s, carved from solid Brazilian rosewood (jacaranda). The form is defined by a deeply carved bowl that transitions into a slender neck and a broad, rounded handle, creating a continuous organic silhouette.
The piece highlights the natural character of the rosewood, with rich tonal variation and pronounced grain patterns visible across the surface. The smooth, carved interior and softly contoured edges emphasize the material’s depth and natural luster.
The wood has been carefully refinished, preserving the clarity of the grain while maintaining the integrity of the original carving.
Jac Art was known for producing utilitarian and decorative objects in Brazilian hardwoods during the mid-20th century, often emphasizing simple forms that showcase the natural qualities of the material.
