Silvered Metal Rabbit on Black Marble Plinth, ca. 1900

About the Item

This charming small rabbit figurine is a fine example of early 20th-century German craftsmanship. Made around 1900, the piece is cast in metal and finished with a delicate silvering, giving it a subtle yet elegant shine. The rabbit is depicted in a seated pose, with beautifully rendered fur texture and a gentle, alert expression that adds character and warmth. It rests atop a solid, rectangular plinth made of deep black marble, which provides a striking contrast to the silver tones and emphasizes the sculpture’s refined aesthetic. With its compact size and timeless appeal, this piece makes a delightful decorative accent for any interior. Whether as a tasteful skyline gift or a cherished addition to a rabbit or animal-themed collection, it embodies both charm and quality. Ideal for collectors who appreciate antique animal figures or for those seeking a unique and meaningful gift. This silvered rabbit is not just a decorative object—it is a testament to the elegance of turn-of-the-century German design.

Bronze Bust Sculpture on Marble Plinth
Located in London, GB
This strikingly naturalistic bronze sculpture was created in Florence in 1895. The bust depicts an elderly man, most likely a farm worker, carrying a heavy sack of grain over his shoulder. He wears an old slightly ragged shirt which is open at his chest, revealing his thin body underneath. The man looks out into the distance on the left, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. His mouth is open as though he is breathing heavily with the strain of the work or calling out to someone unknown to the viewer. The sculptor has accurately rendered every detail, with great truth to reality. The faint stubble on the man's chin and the wrinkles on his face and hands are faithfully portrayed. In its naturalistic style and its everyday, unidealised subject-matter, this bronze may be described as a work of Realism. The Realist movement flourished in the arts in Europe in this period, the 19th Century. The bust is signed ‘G Rossi...
