Mermaid Wall Sculptures For Sale on 1stDibs

At 1stDibs, there are several options of mermaid wall sculptures available for sale. Frequently made of metal, brass and ceramic, all mermaid wall sculptures available were constructed with great care. Mermaid wall sculptures have long been popular, with older editions for sale from the 18th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. Mid-Century Modern, Art Deco and Arts and Crafts mermaid wall sculptures are consistently popular styles. Large mermaid wall sculptures can prove too imposing for some spaces, so the smaller mermaid wall sculptures available at 1stDibs — each spanning 4 inches in width — may make for a better choice. Mermaid wall sculptures have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Hertha Baller, Walter Bosse and Valentin Shabaeff are consistently popular.

How Much are Mermaid Wall Sculptures?

Prices for mermaid wall sculptures can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, mermaid wall sculptures begin at $397 and can go as high as $32,000, while the average can fetch as much as $900.

Finding the Right Wall-mounted Sculptures for You

Antique and vintage wall-mounted sculptures can tie a room together and will work well with existing decor. From mid-century modern works to Art Deco to brutalist sculptures, there’s something to pair with every furniture style and aesthetic taste.

Whether you tend toward the dramatic or prefer to keep things casual with understated works of metal or wood, introducing wall-mounted sculpture as part of your decor is going to make a statement. Any sculpture, no matter its size or shape, will bring life into a space and accentuate the work you’ve already done to create a welcoming environment.

A unique three-dimensional figurative sculpture mounted on your dining-room wall is definitely going to stir reflection and conversation over meals and cocktails, while a trio of abstract works arranged on the bookshelves in your living room can add spontaneity and draw attention to your collection of first-edition artist monographs. And while decorating with busts, which are sculpted or cast figurative works, hasn’t topped the list of design trends every year, busts are back.

In your living room, perhaps you’re thinking about integrating a dazzling wallpaper design or large-scale landscape paintings.

If you’re instead considering creating a single focal point with a wall-mounted sculpture, there is an array of objects that you might not have top of mind. Art Deco wall mirrors, your collection of Fornasetti dinner plates or a grouping of ceramic wall planters, for example, when positioned to face the main entrance of your living room, will help you plan for furniture placement and can amount to a warm and inviting touch for an area that will see a lot of foot traffic.

The good news is that design is personal. Perhaps your space will benefit from a maximalist touch? Alongside his scores of Instagram followers, for example, unapologetic maximalist James Kivior, a design enthusiast and national educational manager for French cosmetics brands, is inspired by the idea of too much tiger print. If a maximalist approach sounds like too much for your modest-sized space, consider a sparse distribution of your collection instead — some vintage mid-century modern wall sculptures can go here, some vibrant folk art or Italian art glass can go here. Get creative!

Whatever your preference, find an extraordinary range of antique, new and vintage wall-mounted sculptures today on 1stDibs.
