Vintage Folk Art Woman Towel Holder (1938)
Origin: Texas, USA
A spectacular piece of American folk art from 1938, hand-carved and painted in the likeness of a stoic woman ready to manage your linens. Her expression suggests she takes her utilitarian duties incredibly seriously, bringing an instant sense of regional history and character to a bathroom or kitchen. The painted surface has aged into a rich patina with honest cracks that tell a nearly century-old story. She is a very patient assistant, waiting since before World War II to help you dry your hands.
Each vintage treasure is hand selected by Tanner & Fletcher, & sometimes by Tanner’s mom, Adele.
