Neoclassical Animal Sculptures
NEOCLASSICAL STYLE
Neoclassical design emerged in Europe in the 1750s, as the Age of Enlightenment reached full flower. Neoclassical furniture took its cues from the styles of ancient Rome and Athens: symmetrical, ordered, dignified forms with such details as tapered and fluted chair and table legs, backrest finials and scrolled arms.
Over a period of some 20 years, first in France and later in Britain, neoclassical design — also known as Louis XVI, or Louis Seize — would supersede the lithe and curvaceous Rococo or Louis XV style.
The first half of the 18th century had seen a rebirth of interest in classical antiquity. The "Grand Tour" of Europe, codified as a part of the proper education of a patrician gentleman, included an extended visit to Rome. Some ventured further, to sketch the ruins of ancient Greece. These drawings and others — particularly those derived from the surprising and rich archaeological discoveries in the 1730s and ’40s at the sites of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum — caused great excitement among intellectuals and aesthetes alike.
Neoclassical furniture is meant to reflect both grace and power. The overall appearance of neoclassical chairs, tables and cabinetry is strong and rectilinear. These pieces are, in effect, classical architecture in miniature: chair and table legs are shaped like columns; cabinets are constructed with elements that mirror friezes and pediments.
Yet neoclassicism is enlivened by gilt and silver leaf, marquetry, and carved and applied ornamental motifs based on Greek and Roman sculpture: acanthus leaves, garlands, laurel wreaths, sheaves of arrow, medallions and chair splats are carved in the shapes of lyres and urns. Ormolu — or elaborate bronze gilding — was essential to French design in the 18th and 19th centuries as a cornerstone of the neoclassical and Empire styles.
As you can see from the furniture on these pages, there is a bit of whimsy in such stately pieces — a touch of lightness that will always keep neoclassicism fresh.

George III Blue John Panther
Located in New Orleans, LA
One of the only known sculptures rendered in Blue John to exist in the world, this extraordinary George III panther exemplifies Georgian sophistication. Georgian — and later Regency — aesthetics revived classical themes of the ancient Mediterranean and Near East. With a proud stance, gaping jaw and unyielding gaze, the stately panther closely resembles the grand ancient Roman panthers often carved from marble as trapezophoros table supports. The regal cat rests atop a plinth, also made of Blue John, with Siena and Ashford marble detailing.
The intrinsic and richly hued mineral inclusions of the Blue John replicate the textures and colors of the animal’s fur. The rare stone is a variety of natural calcium fluorite found exclusively in Derbyshire, England. It was first discovered in the early 18th century, but its mining did not being until circa 1760. Blue John was a wildly popular material in the decorative arts during the Georgian and Regency...

Antique French Creamware Lions 18th Century
Located in Katonah, NY
We are thrilled to offer this exceptional pair of creamware lions, each elegantly resting on a tall base adorned with sumptuous swags of dark blue "curtains" with gleaming yellow tassels and trim.
Crafted in France, these figures are unparalleled and truly a masterpiece of 18th-century creamware.
They date back to the late 18th century, circa 1790. Each lion's head and mane is exquisitely painted with vibrant yellow and lined in striking midnight brown. Their mouths are painted in delicate pink, adding an extra touch of charm.
Not only are these lions a sight to behold, but they will also bring a touch of humor to your home. Their jovial expressions make it impossible not to laugh along with them.
Leisurely resting on cushions draped with rich fabric and tassels, these friendly lions exude a very French attitude, seamlessly blending formality and friendliness.
Placed on a mantel, they would undoubtedly be the focal point of any room, commanding attention, and admiration from all who see them. These lions are genuinely a one-of-a-kind treasure that is not to be missed.
Dimensions: 6.5 inches tall x 6.75 inches long x 4.5 inches wide
Condition: Excellent
Price: $3200
Background of creamware
Creamware is the name given to a type of earthenware pottery initially made from white clays from Dorset and Devonshire combined with an amount of calcined flint.
Creamware was first produced in England sometime before 1740. Foremost of the pioneers of creamware in the Staffordshire Potteries was Thomas Whieldon. The young Josiah Wedgwood partnered with Thomas Whieldon from 1754-1759. When Wedgwood left to set up his own business, he immediately directed his efforts to developing creamware.
Around the same time, in the mid-18th century, French potters developed their creamware known in France as "Faience Fine...

Rare Pair of bronze statues of French Lions, 1800s
Located in Milano, IT
In the soft glow of a dimly lit room, there stands a pair of French statuettes from the enchanting 1800s, a testament to a bygone era of elegance and opulence. These remarkable works of art, fashioned from lustrous bronze, exude an air of timeless grandeur that beckons you to step closer and marvel at their exquisite craftsmanship.
Each statuette is a masterpiece in its own right, a testament to the skill and dedication of the master sculptor who brought them into existence. The attention to detail is nothing short of astonishing, with every sinew of the majestic lions' bodies meticulously chiseled and lovingly rendered. The craftsmanship is so fine that one cannot help but be captivated by the lifelike expressions and powerful stances of these regal creatures.
These two lions, poised in a position of imposing authority, emanate an aura of strength and royalty that transcends time and space. Their heads held high, their fierce eyes gazing into the distance, they embody the very essence of majesty and dominance. Their finely chiseled manes cascade down their muscular necks, a testament to their untamed, wild nature.
But it is not just their form that captivates the beholder; it is the material itself that adds to their allure. Cast entirely in bronze, these lions bear traces of antiquity beneath their paws, a subtle reminder of the centuries that have passed since their creation. The patina of age only enhances their mystique, as if they have borne witness to a thousand stories, silently guarding the secrets of the past.
In symbolism, lions are revered as symbols of strength and royalty, and these statuettes do justice to that legacy. They are more than mere sculptures...
