A vintage hand-made wooden toy sword, measuring 18" long by 5" wide. Primitive in style and execution, this object bears the unmistakable hand of its maker. The blade is roughly carved from wood, while the hilt is formed from a crudely constructed nailed slat box.
Possibly child-made, the sword has the charm and immediacy of vernacular folk objects — simple materials transformed into something imaginative and full of character. Both playful and sculptural, it reflects the ingenuity and resourcefulness of self-taught making traditions.
