An assortment of decorative items featuring indigenous North American motifs. The collection includes two hand-painted resin busts. One depicts an elder wearing an ornate headdress incorporating natural feathers and a blue felt bib with an embossed leather patch featuring a bird motif. The second bust depicts a younger figure with a mohawk-style crest of synthetic fur, facial markings, and a necklace of faux teeth. Also included are two square wall or desk clocks constructed from a dark, slate-textured material. The clock faces feature printed scenes of figures on horseback with Roman numeral hour markers and black metal hands. Further items include multiple circular resin relief plaques on individual display stands, featuring scenes such as a figure in a wolf-head garment and a rider on a spotted horse. A small carved totem pole in a dark finish completes the group. No maker marks or signatures are visible on the items.
Condition report:
Generally good decorative condition. The natural feathers on the headdress exhibit some ruffling and minor wear. The synthetic fur on the mohawk shows slight matting. Working order of the battery-operated clock movements has not been tested. Minor surface dust and light shelf wear are present throughout the collection.
