Butter Mold by Wellington Blewett, c. 1937, is a stunning example of American decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. This intricately carved wooden butter mold, created by the skilled hand of Wellington Blewett, showcases the beauty and craftsmanship of traditional woodcarving techniques. The butter mold, with its distinctive shape and ornamental design, was a functional item used in American kitchens during this era. Blewett, an accomplished artist known for his watercolor, colored pencil, and graphite on paper works, also excelled in woodcarving. His expertise is evident in the detailed grooves and patterns that adorn this butter mold, which adds an artistic touch to the simple task of shaping butter. The butter mold, a period item from the 20th century, is a testament to the rich heritage of American handicrafts. It is a prime example of the index of American design, which reflects the country's unique cultural identity and artistic traditions. The mold's shape, with its rounded edges and intricate patterns, is a shape that has been passed down through generations, a shape that holds a special place in the history of American kitchenware. This photograph, taken at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., showcases the butter mold in all its glory. The image captures the essence of the piece, its color and texture, and the delicate details that make it a work of art in its own right. The butter mold, a functional item from the past, is a reminder of the beauty and creativity that can be found in the most unexpected places, and a testament to the enduring appeal of handmade items.
