Rare & Top Workmanship Midcentury Bronze Discus Fish Sculpture W Stunning Patina

About the Item

Aesthetically marvelous, small bronze discus fish sculpture. This stunning, work-of-art, bronze 'symphysodon' (or discus fish) sculpture is another one of our recent great finds. If you have an eye for top quality hand-crafted sculptures of animals in general and of fish in particular then you will immediately realize that this handsome discus fish sculpture can only be the work of a master craftsman. It is not signed and we are unable to find another one, not anywhere in the world. It never ceases to amaze us when an artist is capable of perfectly capturing the soul of another living being in a sculpture. It seems a god given talent that is only very rarely discovered anymore. We feel this (unknown to us) artisan left us (art lovers) a sculpture of museum quality and condition which will look great no matter where you decide to have it on display. It stands on its original bronze base and this discus fish will look great, no matter where you decide to have him on display. As so often is the case, this near-antique bronze with its amazing patina is even better looking in real life than in our photos. You can, again, take our word for it. Again great value for money. Also, because our fair price for this possibly one of a kind work of art includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 workdays. Maximum width x height x depth: 3.75 x 3.65 x 1.6 inches. Weight: 0.52 kilo or 1.15 pounds. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish and decorative and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again).
