About the Item

Capture the fantastic spirit of a seaside Italian grotto with this magnificent vintage dolphin pedestal. Masterfully hand-crafted in Italy from glazed terracotta, this piece is a true work of sculptural art. It features a stylized dolphin or mythical sea creature, its body gracefully curved with detailed scales, supporting a scalloped, shell-shaped top. The entire piece is finished in a crisp white glaze, brought to life with hand-painted stripes of zesty lime green and sunny yellow. This is a wonderfully versatile and theatrical object, perfect as a low side table next to a chic armchair, a unique pedestal for a cascading plant, or as a standalone piece of art in a sunroom or entryway. Presented in great vintage condition, this piece proudly displays its artisanal heritage, with a lovely patina and minor scuffs, chips, and glaze variations that are inherent to its age and hand-made character. Measuring 18" long, 13.5" deep, and 18.25" tall, its substantial form makes a confident and playful statement. The table's whimsical design and fresh palette make it a perfect fit for Hollywood Regency, Italian, Coastal, or Grandmillennial decors, bringing a dose of pure personality and charm. Don't let this enchanting piece swim away. Add a touch of Italian fantasy to your home today!
