About the Item

A beautiful abstract Scandinavian metal sculpture from the mid-20th century, executed in painted iron with a dynamic, construction-like composition. The sculpture’s geometric lines and open, airy construction give it a graphic, almost “drawing in iron” effect, characteristic of mid-century experimental metal sculpture. Equally compelling when displayed alone or as part of a curated interior, this abstract metal sculpture complements interiors ranging from Mid-Century Modern and Brutalist to Organic Modern, Art Deco, or Eclectic spaces. Its timeless abstract form and tactile metal finish make it a versatile statement piece.
