Wood Carving - Scroll c. 1939

This wood carving, created by Clayton Clements around 1939, is a detailed and intricate piece of craftsmanship. The scroll design exhibits the artist's meticulous attention to detail and mastery of woodcarving. The carving is likely a fragment from a larger piece of furniture or architectural element, demonstrating the skilled use of wood as a decorative material in the early 20th century. The piece's organic shape and flowing lines evoke a sense of movement and grace, typical of the Art Deco movement.
