Buy Wooden Sculptures
A Material With Soul
ars mundi offers a carefully curated selection of wooden sculptures. Alongside modern designs, you can discover designs from past epochs as high-quality replicas. In addition, we present handcrafted wooden statues that have been carved from the natural material using traditional carving tools, as well as wooden sculptures created using mechanical processes.
Sculptures Made of Wood: Natural Material With Individual Characteristics
Wood is a natural material and is considered a living raw material. Each piece impresses with its own colour, grain and history of origin. The special fascination also often lies in the fact that colour and grain are not only unique at the moment of processing but are also subject to entirely individual ageing processes. In addition, the material can be worked in many different ways and combined with other materials.
Limited Editions and Originals
If you would like to buy wood art from us in the form of wooden sculptures, you can choose between high-quality replicas of famous works, limited editions and unmistakable originals and unique pieces.
There are, for example, the originals by Jörg Herz, which, as expressively sawn sculptures, show life humorously in its many facets. Or the limited editions by Doppeldenk, which are often not pure wooden sculptures but enter into a symbiotic connection with other materials. Edvardas Racevicius was inspired by Lithuania’s traditional icon carving and thus takes a more classical approach with his small wooden statues.
| Note: Even in serially produced editions, no wooden sculpture is exactly the same as another because the natural raw material wood always has unique grain and colouring. As a result, there may also be differences between the sculptures within editions. |
Wooden Sculptures in the Living Space or Outdoors
The sculptures made of wood in our range are generally intended as decorative objects for the living space. Here, they should be placed well protected from UV radiation and cleaned regularly or freed from dust. In order to be able to place wooden sculptures in the garden as well, they would have to be made weatherproof with appropriate oils or glazes. Instead, we recommend taking a look at our selection of garden sculptures.
| Care tips: To preserve the longevity of art wooden sculptures, direct exposure to heated air and moisture should be avoided, as the wood may otherwise crack or swell. |
High-Quality Wooden Sculptures at ars mundi
For the creation of our wooden sculptures as editions, we work exclusively with renowned sculptors and studios. Without exception, they only use fine and durable woods, such as lime or olive wood, which are suitable for designing large and small wooden sculptures. In addition, all objects are hand-painted and, in the case of a limited edition, provided with numbering.
If, on the other hand, you buy wooden sculptures that are offered as originals or unique pieces, your order also includes a certificate of authenticity. This official document confirms authenticity and origin and is therefore also of interest to collectors.
