Unique vintage hand-carved wood printing block featuring an anatomical tooth/root design with bold graphic details. This original artist carving appears to depict a tooth with exposed roots and nerve structure, created as a relief printing block. Signed Virginia Higgins (signature appears reversed as expected on a printing block).
Measures approximately 6" x 4". Includes original wood block with carved surface and aged patina. Condition is consistent with age and use as an art printing tool, including surface wear and minor edge wear. Back has an old art supply stamp believed to be from F. Weber Co. art materials.
A fascinating piece of printmaking history, perfect for collectors of anatomical art, dental decor, medical oddities, artist studio displays, or unusual vintage pieces.
