You’ve searched high and low for the perfect child marble bust — we have versions that date back to the 19th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 20th Century are available. A child marble bust is a generally popular piece of furniture, but those created in
Art Deco,
Art Nouveau and
Neoclassical styles are sought with frequency. You’ll likely find more than one child marble bust that is appealing in its simplicity, but
Antonio Frilli,
Constant Roux and
Jean-Antoine Injalbert produced versions that are worth a look.
The presence of vintage and antique bust sculptures can add a necessary decorative layer to any interior. And just because a statue looks classical doesn't mean it has to be conventional.
A touch of whimsy, a dose of drama — a single bust can alter a room. And when placed in just the right spot, these statues can almost feel alive.
“They give humanity in a way that a more abstract sculpture can’t give,” says Los Angeles designer Timothy Corrigan, who loves pieces that beg to be touched. For a welcoming entry hall project in California, Corrigan selected an antique Persian rug and a bust that invites you to touch it. A collection of sculptures in wood, marble and brass complement the star of the show.
For Consort cofounder and creative director Mat Sanders, a bust doesn’t have to be pretty. “I most enjoy busts that are a little busted,” Sanders jokes — but choose something with a soul you can live with, as “sculpture representative of the human form carries with it an energy you will add to the space.”
The antique and vintage bust sculptures for sale on 1stDibs include Art Deco busts, mid-century modern busts and more.
