Folk art is finding an ever-growing following who value it for the simplicity of its creations, but also for the freedom that artists infuse into simple, handcrafted objects. These artists tell stories of their everyday life, culture and their community.

This table is a fine example. It's an assemblage of genuine feminine legs, embellished with early 20th century heels shoes enhanced by a little knot with a walnut top finished on the edge with a ivory lacquered rod.
The use of light wood and pastel painting accentuates the piece's warm feel.
Like other folk art objects, this table is a one-off production process.

Anthropologist Marcel Mauss once said that everything that is unofficial is popular. Folk art is definitely an art that is of the people, for the people and by the people.
