Vintage Stangl #3449 Hand-Painted Carolina Parakeet Figurine, circa 1950

By Stangl Pottery

Located in Oklahoma City, OK

A wonderfully expressive mid-century Carolina Parakeet bird sculpture by Stangl Pottery of Flemington, New Jersey. Identified as Stangl model no. 3449, the now-extinct North American parakeet is modeled perched on a gnarled branch and feeding on a cocklebur. Its brilliant yellow and russet head is complemented by beautifully shaded jade, turquoise, blue, and moss-green plumage. Deeply molded feathering, a glossy hand-painted finish, and the bird’s inquisitive, downward-turned pose give this compact sculpture exceptional character. The form belongs to Stangl’s celebrated series of naturalistic American bird figures inspired by the work of John James Audubon. The underside bears the original oval “STANGL POTTERY BIRDS” backstamp. The model number and any decorator’s initials are presently obscured by remnants of old protective felt and adhesive. A distinctive piece of American art pottery for an Audubon collection, library shelf, garden room, or colorful layered interior. Maker: Stangl Pottery Model: Carolina Parakeet, no. 3449 Origin: Flemington, New Jersey, USA Date: Circa 1940s–1950s Material: Hand-painted glazed ceramic pottery Condition: Good vintage condition with minor surface marks, glaze variations, and light age-related wear.

19th Century Cesare Beccaria Bronze Sculpture

Located in Milan, IT

19th Century. Cesare Beccaria Bronze, 49 x 13 x 15 cm The bronze statue examined faithfully reproduces the famous Milanese monument by Giuseppe Grandi (1843-1894) dedicated to Cesare Beccaria. The work, from the top of a high base in white Montorfano granite, dominates the homonymous Milanese square, a sad stage for executions at the time of Austrian rule, in a bronze copy of 1914 to replace the original stone statue which already at the beginning of the new century showed serious signs of deterioration. The marble became part of the collections of the Gallery of Modern Art and is now located inside the Palazzo di Giustizia in Milan. The initiative regarding the erection of a monument dedicated to Cesare Beccaria originates in 1865, in support of the proposed abolition of the death penalty...

Antique, New and Vintage Figurative Sculptures

Figurative sculpture is a modern art form in which artists create work that is typically representative of the visible world. However, sculptures that are considered to be figurative in style can definitely be inclusive of abstract elements. A wide range of antique, new and vintage figurative sculptures has been made over the years by both well-known and emerging artists, and these pieces can prove striking and provocative as part of your home decor.

Realistic representation in visual art has a very long history. And while figurative artists, whether figurative painters or sculptors, find inspiration in humans, animals and real-life objects, good figurative sculptures can make us think differently about how the real world should look. Just as figurative paintings might include Photorealistic human likenesses, they can also include elements of Surrealism and can suggest a creative and alternative reality. Figurative sculptures aren’t always realistic impressions of our world — depictions of the human form in classical Greek sculpture, for example, might emphasize beauty and physical perfection.

There are a variety of figurative sculptures on 1stDibs created by artists working in a number of styles, including Art Deco, Art Nouveau, mid-century modern and more. A large figurative sculpture can introduce an excellent focal point in a guest bedroom, while smaller works might draw the eye to spaces such as wall shelving or a bookcase that people may otherwise overlook.

When decorating your living room, dining room, home office and study areas with figurative sculptures, don’t be afraid to choose bold colors to inject brightness into neutral spaces. Texture is another factor to consider when purchasing figurative sculptures. A highly textural work of ceramics or wood will catch the eye in a sleek modern space, whereas a smooth, flat glass sculpture can offer an often much-needed contrast in a room that already has many textures.

On 1stDibs, find antique, new or vintage figurative sculpture or other kinds of sculpture for your home decor today.
