Porcelain Monkeys For Sale on 1stDibs

An assortment of porcelain monkeys is available at 1stDibs. The range of distinct porcelain monkeys — often made from ceramic, porcelain and enamel — can elevate any home. There are all kinds of porcelain monkeys available, from those produced as long ago as the 18th Century to those made as recently as the 21st Century. There are many kinds of porcelain monkeys to choose from, but at 1stDibs, Rococo, Art Nouveau and Art Deco porcelain monkeys are of considerable interest. Large porcelain monkeys can prove too imposing for some spaces, so the smaller porcelain monkeys available at 1stDibs — each spanning 2.5 inches in width — may make for a better choice. Porcelain monkeys have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Dresden Porcelain, Meissen Porcelain and Ferdinand Liebermann are consistently popular.

How Much are Porcelain Monkeys?

Prices for porcelain monkeys start at $640 and top out at $38,000 with the average selling for $2,575.

Finding the Right Sculptures for You

Styling your home with vintage, new and antique sculptures means adding a touch that can meaningfully transform the space. By introducing a sculptural work as a decorative finish to any interior, you’re making a statement, whether you tend toward the dramatic or prefer to keep things casual with modest, understated art.

A single, one-of-a-kind three-dimensional figurative sculpture mounted on your dining room wall is a guaranteed conversation piece, while a trio of abstract works arranged on your living room bookshelves can add spontaneity to the collection of first-edition novels or artist monographs you’re displaying as well as draw attention to them. Figurative sculptures are representational works that portray a specific person, animal or object. And while decorating with busts, which are sculpted or cast figurative works, hasn’t exactly topped the list of design trends every year, busts are back. According to designer Timothy Corrigan, “They give humanity in a way that a more abstract sculpture can’t give.” Abstract sculptures, on the other hand, are not meant to show something specific. Instead, they invoke a mood or scene without directly stating what they are portraying.

Busts made of stone or metal may not seem like a good fit for your existing decor. Fortunately, there are many ways for a seemingly incongruous piece to fit in with the rest of your room’s theme. You can embrace a dramatic piece by making it the focal point of the room, or you can choose to incorporate several elements made out of the same material to create harmony in your space. If an antique or more dramatic piece doesn’t feel like you, why not opt for works comprising plastic, fiberglass or other more modern materials?

When incorporating sculpture into the design of your home — be it the playful work of auction hero and multimedia visionary KAWS, contemporary fiber art from Connecticut dealer browngrotta arts or still-life sculpture on a budget — consider proper lighting, which can bring out the distinctive aspects of your piece that deserve attention. And make sure you know how the size and form of the sculpture will affect your space in whole. If you choose a sculpture with dramatic design elements, such as sharp angles or bright colors, for example, try to better integrate this new addition by echoing those elements in the rest of your room’s design.

Get started on decorating with sculpture now — find figurative sculptures, animal sculptures and more on 1stDibs today.
