19th Century English Bronze Thoroughbred Horse Sculpture on Wood Base

About the Item

19th Century English Bronze Thoroughbred Horse Sculpture on Wood Base. A charming 19th-century English bronze sculpture depicting a thoroughbred horse, mounted on a simple stepped-edge hardwood plinth. Beautifully molded with anatomical precision and a natural stance, the figure captures the elegance and vitality of the breed. The bronze has developed a warm, rich patina over time, enhancing its lifelike quality and period charm. Measuring 8 inches high by 8 inches long and 3.5 inches deep, this compact yet expressive equestrian figure serves equally well as a desk ornament, bookshelf accent, or collector's piece. The left ear has been professionally restored with care to preserve the integrity of the original casting. A fine example of 19th-century English animalier bronze sculpture with enduring decorative appeal!

19th Century Italian Porcelain Greyhound

Located in Middleburg, VA

19th Century Italian Porcelain Greyhound. Beautifully sculpted with realistic facial expression. Made in Italy, circa 1890. 20" High 5" Wide 11.5" Deep A refined and beautifully sculpted Italian porcelain greyhound, dating to the late 19th century, circa 1890. Rendered in a luminous white glaze, this elegant figure captures the poised and slender form of a seated greyhound- likely an Italian Greyhound or Whippet- with remarkable anatomical precision and grace. The statue exudes quiet dignity and classical charm, with finely modeled musculature, delicately curled taiol, and expressive features, including black-painted eyes, nose, and claws that contrast subtly against the clean porcelain body. The naturalistic pose and attention to anatomical detail suggest influence from neoclassical and realist traditions, making it not only a decorative object but also a small sculptural work of art. Likely created in one of Italy's renowned porcelain ateliers of the period, this piece embodies the sophistication and craftsmanship typical of the Victorian-era Grand Tour aesthetic. A stunning addition to any interior vignette, mantelpiece, or cabinet of curiousities- ideal for collectors of antique Italian ceramics...
