Early 20th Century Hand-Carved Lion Sculpture Statue on Base, King of the Jungle

About the Item

Rare and decorative sculpture of the biggest of the big cats. Thankfully, in most countries it is not allowed to keep a lion at home. This quality carved lion therefore is the best chance of being able to enjoy one from up close. This lion sculpture with its beautiful manes and muscular tone is very well and realistically carved and thanks to the wonderful patina it also comes close to a lions true colors. This majestic, powerful and well fed king of the jungle stands on an ebonized wooden base and the contrast of the colors makes it stand out even more. This fine and unique work of wood carving art will look great in a cabinet, on a desk, on a side table etc. Again great value, also, because worldwide shipping from our store to your door in just 4 days is complimentary.
