Offered for sale is an untitled sculpture by the listed American artist Edwin Scheier (1910-2008) constructed of Guanacaste hardwood and cord. This tall, hand-carved sculpture is signed on the base and dated '78.
Edwin Scheier was an American artist, best known for his ceramic works with his wife, Mary Scheier. Edwin works in a number of mediums including sculpture, ceramics, painting, and drawing.
