Art Deco Bronze Figurine “Dove” on Black Marble - Olive Patina - H. 18,9 cm

A dove pared down to smooth, quiet surfaces.

Perched upright where a stone block ends, she glances back over her shoulder, breast gently rounded. Feathers are hinted at only on the wingtips. Collectors of Art Deco and anyone furnishing a clean modern interior will find a small piece here for a bedside table, a shelf or a desk.

Craftsmanship

The olive-brown patina is kept velvety and matt, following the soft curves. In deliberate contrast, the bird sits on an angular block of white-veined black marble.

Care

A soft brush or a dry microfibre cloth is enough. Avoid metal cleaners, and keep acids such as wine or lemon away from the marble.
