The Memory of Motion
Vintage Blue Painted Wooden Cow Sculpture
About the Product
A vintage Rajasthani old wooden cow, carved and painted by hand. Folk art figures such as this come from a Rajasthani tradition of painted animals, made for devotional displays, ceremonial arrangements and the festivals around Krishna's birth. Faded blue, earthy red and exposed wood sit together across its surface, the colouring of a folk object that has already lived a life.
It stands well on its own on a console, side table, bookshelf or display plinth, and brings colour and texture to contemporary interiors.
Each piece is one of a kind. Size, colour and markings vary from piece to piece. Photographs are close, but the piece may look slightly different in person and from different angles. Cracks, joints, chips and worn paint are part of the original piece and add to the beauty of it.
About the Chapter
From The Memory of Motion, Origin & Form's first collection.
This piece has already made a journey. Long before it reached you, it moved: carried, wheeled, passed from hand to hand. It carries decades in its grain and the wear of the roads behind it.
You're not buying an object. You're buying the moment it stopped moving.
