Mêne Ducks Ornament

Characterful figurine of an elegantly dressed couple, reflecting the style of early 20th-century French decorative pieces created in bronze, spelter and ceramic. The tradition of small sculptural figures depicting fashionable couples in the manner of the Art Deco years captured an ideal of cultivated sociability that found its way onto mantelpieces and display cabinets across Europe and America. The gallant gentleman, the stylishly dressed lady, these small objects were as much an expression of aspiration as of decoration, and they retain today a quality of period charm and quiet wit that makes them as engaging as they were a century ago. Resin with antiqued bronze finish. A charming addition to any shelf or mantelpiece, and a lovely gift for any admirer of the decorative arts of the early 20th century.
