About the Item
A striking mid-20th century sculptural depiction of a seated whippet or Italian greyhound dog. Crafted in painted composite or resin with an aged, ivory-white surface, the piece features realistic modeling of the canine form with visible musculature, ribbing, and graceful posture. A rich, antiqued gilt finish highlights the detailed tasseled collar and base, adding a touch of classical elegance.
This elegant decorative object functions beautifully as a sculptural accent piece in a range of interiors, traditional, eclectic, or maximalist, and is particularly well suited as a whimsical entryway sculpture, fireplace guardian, or even a luxe boutique display. Due to its size and visual presence, it could be styled next to a doorway or console, or stand alone as a conversation-starting objet d'art.
Thanks to its durable construction and weathered finish, this piece could also be placed in a covered outdoor area such as a loggia, veranda, or garden pavilion. Its stylized neoclassical profile makes it an ideal fit for French country, Hollywood Regency, and grand interiors. When used in pairs, these sculptures offer a stately, symmetrical design element, perfect for framing entryways, stair landings, or large-scale mantels.

MEASUREMENTS:
H 26" x W 16" x D 9"
CONDITION:
Good vintage condition with light patina and wear. There are possible age and wear marks throughout, although it appears intentional to give a patinated look, including craquelure and minor chipping. Since we are unable to determine if this wear was intentional and part of the sculpture we are listing the possible blemishes to err on the safe side. Attractive and ready for immediate use.
