Description from the seller
This charming metal acrobatic clown is a real eye-catcher that immediately brings a smile. The hand-painted figure, rendered in warm shades of yellow, red and black, is attached between two metal bars and spins smoothly around its axis. With a light touch it comes to life and performs its cheerful acrobatic movements.
The object is made of metal and hand-painted, which gives it an authentic appearance and a beautifully well-worn patina. The signs of wear and paint aging emphasize its playful character and attest to its age and use, without diminishing its charm. The sturdy metal base in a soft green color provides stability and a pronounced vintage look.
A particularly decorative piece that fits perfectly within an interior with a fondness for folk art, naive art, vintage toys, or circus-related objects. It is also very suitable for collectors of mechanical or kinetic decorative design.
