Vintage Audet carved folk figures -Canadian Traditional Quebec Hand Carved wood Folk art , Painted retailer Old Woman

Here is a Quebec Folk Art Hand Carved Figure from the company Audet.

Hand carved, Painted and Signed painted by Quebec folk artist, Renthierr of Montreal. He was a flat-plane carver, active in the 1930's to 1940's.

Usually his carvings were of Quebec figures in traditional costume and situations. He usually painted his work and his carvings were generally smaller, in the 3 1/2 to retailer 5 1/2 inch range.

Renthierr was one of several flat-plane wood carvers whose carving careers seemed to have stopped sometime in the 40's. The second world war may have been a factor.

This Figure is in Excellent Vintage Condition although she appears to be missing something she held in her hand and there is a small hole in her fist. Otherwise there is nothing broken and all the Paint is Bright and Saturated.

A Terrific Gift for the Folk Art Enthusiast. VERY COLLECTIBLE!
