Bronze Group “Amazon with Antelope” on Black Marble - Art Deco - H. 17,4 cm

In this low Art Deco group, woman and animal meet in perfect stillness.

Almost 48 cm long yet low in height, the group belongs on a wide surface such as a mantelpiece, sideboard or desk. It appeals to collectors of animal sculpture as much as to decorators seeking a calm horizontal accent.

At a glance

• Material: Bronze, marble base
• Colour: bronze / black
• Dimensions (W x D x H): 12 x 47,9 x 17,4 cm
• Weight: 6,3 kg

Craftsmanship

Cast by the lost-wax process, the group only receives its finer details in the handwork that follows. Smooth areas of skin contrast with the textured coat and ridged horns of the antelope. The golden brown patina sits on a rectangular two-tier marble base.

Care

A soft, dry cloth is enough, for the marble too. Polish, water and cleaners would only harm the patina.
