About the Item

Impressive Mid-Century Italian Life-Size White Glazed Ceramic Greyhound Sculpture (1960s) This remarkable mid-century Italian sculpture, dating from the 1960s, is a life-size depiction of a greyhound dog, crafted from white glazed ceramic. The piece exudes exceptional quality and detail, capturing the grace and elegance of this noble breed with extraordinary realism. The greyhound is portrayed sitting obediently, his slender, streamlined body sculpted to reflect the breed's signature agility and poise. His calm demeanor is accentuated by delicately tucked ears and a tail subtly curved to one side. The finely textured surface highlights the greyhound’s sleek musculature, while the masterful glazing adds depth and character. A beautiful light crazing effect across the surface further enhances its tactile and visual appeal. Every element of the sculpture demonstrates meticulous craftsmanship, from the finely rendered paws and facial expression to the graceful curve of the tail. The piece rests on a rectangular base with canted sides, offering stability and a complementary aesthetic. Crafted from high-quality white porcelain, the sculpture boasts a minimalist and refined elegance. Its pristine white glaze provides the perfect canvas for intricate detailing, ensuring it stands out as a sophisticated focal point in any setting. Whether you're a greyhound enthusiast, a collector of fine ceramics, or simply an admirer of exceptional craftsmanship, this mid-century Italian greyhound sculpture is a timeless piece that will elevate any interior.
