Lot #4: Vintage Handcrafted Wood Intarsia Wall Art – "Camel" by Judy Gale Roberts (19" x 19")

Vintage Handcrafted Wood Intarsia Wall Art – "Camel" by Judy Gale Roberts (19" x 19") Up for auction is a stunning, beautifully preserved 19" x 19" Handcrafted Wood Intarsia Art Panel featuring a majestic desert camel. This intricate piece is based on the highly collectible "I-48 Camel" pattern by legendary intarsia artist Judy Gale Roberts. Superb Craftsmanship: Unlike flat marquetry or basic puzzles, true intarsia relies on individually cutting, contouring, and raising unique pieces of natural exotic and domestic hardwoods to create a striking 3D dimensional effect. Every piece of the camel's coat, muzzle, and the rolling desert dunes in the background has been meticulously shaped by hand to accentuate the natural grain, texture, and depth of the wood. No stains are used; the rich gradients are achieved purely through the selection of distinct wood species. Condition & Specifications: • Dimensions: Approximately 19 inches by 19 inches (including the integrated dark wood frame). • Construction: The 43-piece layout is firmly glued to a sturdy plywood backing plate for maximum structural stability. • Display Ready: Features a pre-installed, centered metal sawtooth hanger on the back for immediate wall mounting. • Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The wood retains its original luster, smooth contours, and rich tones with no loose joints or major scuffs. (Please review the high-resolution photos for exact details). This highly tactile, artistic statement piece is perfect for rustic, Southwestern, mid-century modern, or bohemian home decor. It represents hours of dedicated master-level scroll saw craftsmanship and is a fantastic addition for any wood art collector.
