About the Item

MCM Kinetic Astrolite Lucite Fishes Sculpture by Ritts This fantasic kinetic two fish sculpture, which measures about 9.5 x 6.5 x 2.5 inches overall, is great for the MCM affcionado as well as the wildlife lover. Rotate the top fish to give the sculpture the angles your most enjoy, and change it again whenever you like. The fish can be separated as well, as the rod connecting them is not attached but easily is removable. Good vintage condition. No chips or cracks. Light scratches, and some blemishes/spots that could probably be alleviated by proper lucite cleaning/polishing techniques. IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOLLOWS; PLEASE READ THE BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY. ABOUT OUR LISTINGS: -Measurements are approximate and generally represent the approximate widest/longest/highest areas of each item. -Colors on your monitor and/or in your environment may look somewhat different than in ours and often look deeper on dark backgrounds than they do on light backgrounds. -Please keep in mind that vintage items usually will show evidence of previous ownership, such as scuffing, scratching, and/or other wear such as dulling or marring on base, etc.. Buyers of vintage art pieces are presumed to understand and accept such hints of previous ownership. We cannot realistically guarantee perfection since vintage work has typically been owned at some point in the past. We do however inspect for and describe flaws found. Since we do not offer returns, please message us with concerns or questions if you have any before purchasing an item. We'll be pleased to respond. #Decor #mid-centurymodern #sculptures #animalia #animals #fish #kineticsculpture #vintage #figuralsculpture

Vintage Clear Lucite Whale Functional Sculpture for Desktop or Vanity by Ritts
By Herb Ritts, 1952-2002
Located in Warrenton, OR
Vintage Clear Lucite Whale Functional Sculpture for Desktop or Vanity by Ritts Astrolite. Perfect for the MCM affcionado who likes art and whales but whose space needs reqyure function as well, this lucite sculpture is made to hold pens or make-up brushes and look good doing it. (There is also a slit for the mouth for holding mail, cards, notes, etc.) The sculpture measures approximately 8.5 x 3.75 x 2.25 inches. Fairly good vintage condition. No chips or cracks. As is typical with these, there are visible scratches. There are also blemishes (for example, the underside appears to show evidence of a previous label) that could probably be alleviated by proper lucite cleaning/polishing techniques. Priced accordingly. Of course, the pen and brush are just for demo and will not come with the sculpture. IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOLLOWS; PLEASE READ THE BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY.
