Monumental Pair of Tony Duquette Bronze Thai Foo Dog Inlaid With Mica

An exceptional and highly decorative pair of monumental iron birdcages, each finely modeled in the form of a multi-tiered Chinese pagoda, dating to the mid-to-late 20th century. These towering architectural cages are constructed with a latticework iron frame and lined with tight-gauge mesh, allowing them to house even the smallest of avian occupants. Painted in a soft celadon green, the surfaces exhibit a subtle aged patina, adding to their visual depth and period character. Each cage features a tiered design of diminishing proportions, evoking the elegance and balance of traditional East Asian pagoda architecture. The overhanging, flared rooflines are rendered in sweeping wirework, terminating in scroll finials, and create dramatic shadow play when lit from above. The lowest tier on each cage incorporates a discreet operable door—currently zip-tied shut—for access and cleaning. The substantial square base measures approximately 24 inches wide, with progressive upper stages expanding outward at roughly 25 inches, 33 inches, and 36 inches respectively. Each tower stands at an imposing 80 inches high, making them impressive both architecturally and sculpturally. Sculptural yet functional, this pair may be used as originally intended or reimagined as decorative étagères, conservatory focal points, or dramatic treillage-inspired garden follies...
