Large German Porcelain Lion Sculpture by Rudolstadt, circa 1900

About the Item

Large German Porcelain Lion Sculpture by Rudolstadt, circa 1900 An impressive and highly decorative porcelain lion sculpture, crafted in Germany around 1900 by the renowned Rudolstadt manufactory (RW, Thuringia). This majestic figure depicts a roaring lion standing confidently atop a naturalistic rocky base, modeled with remarkable detail and expression. The glaze features warm cream and beige tones, emphasizing the lion’s flowing mane and powerful physique. Made of high-quality glazed porcelain or pottery, the sculpture exemplifies the fine craftsmanship of late 19th to early 20th century German ceramics. The underside bears the blue underglaze RW crown mark (Rudolstadt Works) and the impressed model number "7383 II / 45". With its substantial scale — 58 cm (22.8 in) high — this is a true statement piece, ideal for a library, grand hallway, or mantel. A rare collector’s item that adds character and presence to any refined interior.
