About the Item

Discover an example of early 20th-century French decorative art with this large Art Deco pheasant sculpture by Limousin, created in Paris, France, circa 1920. This important and highly decorative sculpture perfectly captures the elegance, movement, and refined craftsmanship associated with the golden age of French Art Deco design. Crafted from cold-painted spelter and mounted on a striking marble base, the sculpture features a majestic pheasant with beautifully detailed plumage and an impressive elongated form. The original cold-painted finish enhances the realistic textures and rich visual depth, making this piece an outstanding statement sculpture for collectors of antique French art, Art Deco interiors, or rare animal sculptures. The work is signed “Limousin” on the bird’s tail, confirming its authenticity and adding collectible value. Its impressive dimensions — 29.5 inches wide (75 cm), 13 inches high (33 cm), and 7 inches deep (17.7 cm) — make it a remarkable centerpiece for a living room, office, gallery, or sophisticated interior design project. This antique French sculpture remains in very good condition, with only a few slight and tiny bites visible on the marble base, consistent with age and use. The overall presentation is excellent, preserving the beauty and elegance of the original 1920s craftsmanship.
