About the Item

A finely cast plaster bust depicting Hermès (Mercury), modeled after a 4th-century BC Greek original. The head is crisply detailed—tight curls, subtly parted lips, and a confident downward gaze. The clean block base lets the classical form read as an elegant stand-alone sculpture or mingle easily with modern decor, in a very dark green/black finish.
