This is a fascinating white-and-black ceramic leopard, seated— a classic interior design piece that recalls Italian artisanal craftsmanship from the 1960s and 1970s.
Here is a detailed description:
Aesthetic Characteristics
Subject and Pose: The animal is depicted in a proud and elegant pose, sitting on its hind legs with the torso upright. The head is slightly turned upward, giving it a vigilant and noble air.
Coat and Color: The base of the ceramic is a glossy, bright white. The plumage (or coat) is decorated with a series of irregular black spots that range from solid dots to rosette-shaped forms on the flanks, typical of big felines.
Face Details: * The eyes are a vivid blue, which creates a strong color contrast with the black-and-white of the body.
The nose is finished in an ochre/orange tone, adding a touch of warm color.
The details of the mouth and moustache are hinted at with millimetric precision.
Materials and Manufacturing
Material: This is glazed ceramic; the finish is extremely reflective, which suggests the use of a high-quality display case typical of artistic productions.
Style: These objects were luxury icons in the 1970s and today they are highly sought-after vintage pieces by mid-century modern collectors.

The statue exudes a sense of exotic elegance. Despite the subject's predatory nature, the features are rendered in a way that is almost gentle and decorative, making it a decorative piece with a strong visual impact yet harmonious.
