Helge Christoffersen Studio Pottery Sculpture titled "Girl with Scarf" is an absolute tour de force of mid-century Scandinavian figurative art, hand-modeled by the brilliant Danish sculptor Helge Christoffersen (1925–1965) within his own private studio.
 
This highly significant, large-scale 50 cm stoneware sculpture exhibits the artist's masterful balancing of folk elegance and modernist form. The figure is brilliantly designed with a high-gloss, deep green checkered headscarf and lower drapery that frames the beautifully tactile, unglazed matte terracotta body. Pieces of this scale and caliber from Christoffersen's independent workshop are incredibly scarce, making this an elite acquisition for collectors of mid-century modern design.
