Statue, Leopardo ruggente - 50 cm - Earthenware

Vintage Glazed Terracotta Statue – Roaring Leopard (Made in Italy)
Splendid and expressive vintage sculpture in majolica-glazed terracotta, depicting a leopard seated in a roaring pose. A classic of Mid-Century Modern and Hollywood Regency interior design, characterized by a strong dramatic presence and an eclectic, distinctive style.
The piece is entirely finished and hand-painted, with the typical craquelé glaze effect that gives the item the authentic charm of vintage objects.
Key Features:
Material: Glazed terracotta
Origin: 100% Made in Italy (featuring the double raw-pressed mark on the inside base).
Craftsmanship: Hand-painted with great care to the spotted coat details and the facial expression.
Style: Vintage, Boho-Chic, Hollywood Regency.
Condition of the item (Please read carefully):
The statue remains in good overall vintage condition, with vivid colors and a beautiful glaze sheen.
Transparency note: As clearly visible from the close-up photos, the statue has the tip of one of the upper canines missing (broken tooth). Being terracotta, the defect blends into the piece’s worn look, but the price reflects this imperfection.
Shipping and Packaging:
Aware of the delicacy of terracotta, I guarantee bomb-proof packaging: I use sturdy boxes, multiple layers of bubble wrap, and filling material to ensure the feline arrives at your home perfectly intact. Tracked and fast shipping.
