The powerful muscles, elegant proportions and gracefully arched neck express the leopard's strength, confidence and natural character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe iridescent glaze enhances the sculptural form by catching and reflecting the light. Rich golden tones, black spots and the deep green base create a dramatic decorative effect from every angle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sculptural base is decorated with a floral porcelain-style medallion, adding an unexpected decorative contrast to the wild animal. This combination of strength, elegance and decorative design is characteristic of many Italian ceramic creations of the mid-20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the kind of decorative sculpture that works equally well in Art Deco, Hollywood Regency and eclectic interiors. It also complements Mid-Century Modern spaces, where expressive ceramic animal figures became iconic decorative objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeriod\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1950s–1960s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProbably Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArt Deco style\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlazed ceramic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good vintage condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo cracks or repairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFew tiny glaze chip, shown in the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength: \u003cstrong\u003e42 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e (16.54 in)\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight: \u003cstrong\u003e33 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e (12.99 in)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBase width: \u003cstrong\u003e10 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e (3.94 in\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA striking statement piece designed to become the visual focal point of an interior.
