Vintage Bohemian Porcelain Accordion Player
$295.00Circa 1940s Czech porcelain accordion player figure. Primitive and naive in form (the proportions are off, in an outsider style, and the details of the face, limbs, and fingers are crude in design). Modernist color incorporation (bold blues and reds with yellow accents), allowing the piece to fit in a folk art collection or a Mid-Century Modern display.
Deemed Czech, given the legible letters and symbols in the branding (see last photo), but we haven’t been able to determine the artist, despite the signatures.
A dramatic decorative object free of flaws.
