Small Watercolor of Man Working on Boat couple The fabric and stretching around

The fabric and stretching around the edges indicate that these molas were made for use

The chain measures 18 1/8" long x approx 3/4" wide and deep and is in excellent condition

culture indigenous to  the Brazilian Amazon and believe it likely dates to the earlyish 20th century

it is mostly clunky vessels made of popsicle sticks that one most often comes across

whether filled with flowers or not--the form is just gorgeous

Small Watercolor of Man Working on Boat couple The fabric and stretching aroundJust a sweet little vintage watercolor of a man absorbed in working on his boat I assume either sanding or giving it a waxing. I really like how connected to his work, and his boat, he seems, while the landscape around him falls into abstraction. 5"x7", unsigned. Great vintage condition, with some pencil sketching under the watercolor.
