Description from the seller
An absolute rarity, The Phantom Bird.
An incredible and exceptionally rare collector's item: a solid brass sculpture of the legendary Dodo (Raphus cucullatus).
The Dodo no longer exists... except in this form.
Extinct since the end of the 17th century, the Dodo has become a global symbol of loss and myth. Finding such a faithful and substantial representation of this animal is exceptional. This is not simply a decorative object; it is a sculptural tribute to an extinct species, a true decorative relic that fascinates and intrigues.
Made of heavy, precious metal, sculpted from solid brass, this statuette weighs an impressive 370 g for its dimensions (5.5 cm x 7 cm), an unmistakable sign of its density and craftsmanship.
With its mid-century chic, gilded finish, and clean lines, this piece perfectly embodies the Modern Regency/Hollywood Regency style. Its delicate wing engravings and inlaid eyes give it a unique personality.
The ultimate in Cabinet of Curiosities: Owning a Dodo is every collector's dream. It's the centerpiece that draws all eyes and sparks conversation.
You won't see two Dodos like this one. Its unique combination of historical rarity, chic vintage design, and high-quality materials makes it a strategic acquisition for any investor or wildlife art enthusiast.
In good condition, some age-related stains (see photos).
Careful shipping with tracking.
