Set of Four 1970s Chalkware Wall Plaques — Nautical & Middle Eastern Figures
This lot includes a set of four chalkware wall hangings, featuring diverse figures such as a pirate, a fisherman in a yellow sou'wester, and two Middle Eastern men. The pieces are unmarked, and likely produced in the 1970s, evident from the folk-art style and earthy color palette. Made from chalkware, they exhibit a matte finish typical of gypsum plaster compositions. Although there is notable wear such as paint chips on the pirate's hat brim, the set remains structurally intact and visually striking. These decorative pieces capture a sense of adventure and cultural diversity.
