Slightly out of square, a touch wonky in places, with the sort of honest irregularity that suggests it was made to fit a particular corner rather than a universal standard. You get the sense of someone working it out as they went — adjusting, refining, making do. It carries that human rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1042\" data-end=\"1063\"\u003eAnd then the carving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1065\" data-end=\"1437\"\u003eThe front panels shift the piece entirely. Delicately worked scenes of fairies amongst foliage, each figure poised mid-gesture, accompanied by the inscription \u003cem data-start=\"1224\" data-end=\"1242\"\u003e“When Pan Pipes”\u003c\/em\u003e. There’s a clear nod to Art Nouveau here — that late-19th to early-20th century fascination with nature, mythology, and flowing line — but interpreted in a more vernacular, almost dreamlike way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1439\" data-end=\"1520\"\u003eIt’s not refined. It’s not academic.
