About the Item
Large Contemporary Gold Leaf Lioness Sculpture – Ex-Display Decorative Statement Piece
An arresting and finely modelled contemporary sculpture of a reclining lioness, crafted in resin and finished with hand-applied gold leaf. This substantial life-size figure is both bold and elegant, with a strong sculptural presence and a poised, regal stance that draws the eye.
The lioness is depicted at rest, her body stretched in a naturalistic pose with forelegs extended and her gaze fixed forward in serene contemplation. The anatomical modelling is sensitively handled, with particular attention given to the musculature and expression, lending a quiet majesty to the piece. The entire surface has been meticulously finished in gold leaf, applied by hand to create a richly textured, luminous effect that shifts beautifully under light.
Originally produced for a luxury interior or high-end retail environment, this piece was used as a display feature and retains excellent decorative impact. It would serve as a striking focal point in a wide range of settings—from glamorous contemporary interiors to curated commercial spaces, hotel lobbies, or theatrical displays.
