Birds & Animals
Terracotta Panther
Fine terracotta study of a prowling panther. You can almost feel the stealth in his steady, quiet progress across the rocky terrain. The artist obviously studied these animals at some length as this sculpture is…
Art Deco Bronze Camel and Rider
Truly magnificent bronze sculpture of a racing camel being ridden at speed by a nubian warrior, sword and shield in hand. This is a fabulous and rare study and, although unsigned, we know it to…
Bronze Panther by Masson
This powerful sculpture, signed by the artist C. Masson, offers a slightly different slant on the usual sleek panther theme. The animal’s rippling muscles are clearly highlighted to great effect as he slowly moves forward…
Good Dog
Great looking, seated German Shepherd dog of somewhat stylised form, ears pricked and seemingly at the alert. This is a simple but very pleasing sculpture cast in spelter and with nice aged patination. Unsigned but a…
Bronze Panther by Gaby
Good bronze study from around 1920 or perhaps a little earlier of a quietly watchful panther by the Belgian animalier H. Gaby. Something seems to have caught the attention of this good looking animal as…
Snarling Panther*
Powerful bronze study by Louis Carvin of a purposeful looking panther with his teeth bared, snarling while striding forward. Modelled strong and muscly rather than sleek and slinky, this animal is tense and just quickening…
‘Chien Policier’ by Chiparus*
Fine gilded bronze sculpture of a recumbent German Shepherd dog by Chiparus. Titled ‘Chien Policier’, this working dog is down on all fours but his head is raised, his ears are pricked and he has…
Panther by Brault*
Looking at this fine animal you can see why panthers were such a favourite subject of the Art Deco animal sculptors. Sleek, speedy and with that edge of danger, they perfectly encompass the artistic style…
Spelter Panther by Carvin*
Sleek spelter panther by Louis-Albert Carvin. Great movement with the animal captured striding forward and keenly looking slightly to one side as if about to change direction. Finished in an antique green colour and set…
Stag and Doe by Carvin*
Art Deco bronzed and green patinated art metal stag and doe by Louis-Albert Carvin, titled ‘Cervi’. Dating from around 1930, this is a fine sculpture that captures the closeness between the pair as the stag,…
Pair of Spelter Panthers*
An unusual find, this one – a matching pair of spelter panthers each set on a light brown variegated marble base. Unsigned but the artist, whoever he was, has carefully stylised the animals imbuing them…
Alsatian by Carvin*
Realistic figure of an Alsatian by the French sculptor Louis Carvin. This fine looking dog is standing at the alert on what looks to be rocky terrain, with his ears pricked and sniffing the air.…
Cartier Bronze Lion*
An impressive bronze study of a watchful lion standing on a naturalistic rocky mound, sculpted by the Marseilles born animalier Thomas-François Cartier (1879-1943). This artist, who was a gold medal winner at the 1927 Salon…
Leaping Panther*
Dark bronze coloured spelter panther leaping over green onyx rocks. Beautifully sleek lines so typical of the better examples of this subject. The two piece marble base is unusually shaped, coming to a point at…
Panther Pair*
An appealing pair of Art Deco cold-painted spelter panthers which, although unmarked, were almost certainly cast at the Le Verrier foundry in the late 1930’s. A peaceful scene as the animals who, it’s clear to…
Hold that Tiger*
Unusual and nicely finished cold painted spelter tiger on a very attractive marble base. The animal is stealthily moving forward as though having just picked up the scent of his next meal. There is no…
