A pair of vintage modernist art sculptures by Hoselton, Ontario, Canada. Their smooth minimalist figurines depict native Canadian animals/birds...
We have a smaller-sized stretching long necked Crane (or swan or goose), no 117, along with a pheasant-like bird no 2023 with a long tail. Solid moulded silver-coloured recycled aluminium with a reflective shine. Hoselton say, "Free flow designs carefully hand created from molten recycled aluminum with each piece getting the Hoselton signature to identify it’s quality and authenticity". Circa 1970s to 1990s vintage.
Hand signed to their bases and one maintains a sticker. Crane is 16cm tall and the pheasant is 15cm long x 5.5cm tall. Very good vintage condition with a good shine. Being a soft shiny metal they're susceptible to marks and scratches, so they have some fine marks from being pre-loved, see photos. The Crane has a mark to his front that looks like a moulding defect.
Free P&P within the UK. Price is for the pair.
