Vintage Framed Handmade Fabric Mola Kuna Native American Panama Frog Animal 15"H

Description: Vintage Framed Handmade Fabric Mola Kuna Native American Panama Frog Animal 15"H This beautiful vintage Mola fabric textile will make an excellent addition to your collection. It features a fabric assemblage with a black background and bright colorful stitched pieces representing what appears to be a frog/reptile, monkey or another unknown animal. It is in what appears to be the original framing which is composed of a small center frame around the Mola, with the smaller front frame attached to a wooden structure covered in burlap style material with stretched inside of a matching outer frame. Will blend perfectly in collections ranging from Central / South American Folk Art, Oceanic Art, Primitive, Outsider, Naïve, Mid Century Modern, MCM and modern art styles from artists such as Keith Haring whose art is reminiscent of this style of folk art. It does have some wear including marks/scratches/dents on the wooden frames, crudely cut/joined corner joints, the burlap is loose with slack in the surface and more so please read complete details below and review photos closely for condition. If shipping to your location is significantly less than the listing shipping price, I will happily refund the difference after the item has shipped. Thank you and enjoy!
