EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate Treen, 1938" is a stunning hand-carved wooden plate by American artist Wellington Blewett. Created during the 1930s, this unique work of art showcases the artist's exceptional skill in woodcarving and his keen eye for design. The plate, which measures approximately 12 inches in diameter, is intricately decorated with initials, a makers mark, and geometric patterns, all carefully carved into the smooth, richly grained surface of the wood. Blewett's use of color and contrast is evident in the watercolor and graphite on paper drawing that accompanies the plate, which serves as a detailed design template. The plate, which is a testament to the art of treenware or woodenware, is a beautiful example of the decorative arts that emerged during the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The plate, now a cherished piece of heritage art, was once a functional item used for serving food at the table. Its intricate design and handmade quality make it a standout piece, not only for its historical significance but also for its aesthetic value. The plate is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts and crafts from the colonial period to the 1940s. Wellington Blewett's Plate Treen, 1938, is a testament to the beauty and craftsmanship of hand-carved woodenware. Its intricate design, rich history, and unique character make it a must-see item for anyone interested in American art and decorative arts of the 20th century.
