About the Item

This set of six 20th century French wooden carpentry practice models offers a compelling glimpse into traditional woodworking education and craftsmanship. Hand-carved from solid wood, each form demonstrates a distinct joint, cut, or geometric exercise used to train precision and technique. The varied shapes—including stepped blocks, angled wedges, and curved recesses—highlight the thoughtful study of proportion, balance, and structural logic. A warm, time-earned patina accentuates the grain and tool marks, underscoring their utilitarian origins while lending sculptural appeal. Both educational and decorative, this collection works beautifully as an arranged tabletop display, shelf accent, or studio object. Their understated forms and honest construction make them ideal for interiors that appreciate functional design, material integrity, and the quiet elegance of craft history.
