Ghepardo is a seated ceramic cheetah statue from Italy, in excellent condition, measuring 60 cm high, 30 cm wide and 26 cm deep, signed.
Description from the seller
This statue depicts a seated cheetah, made of ceramic. An example of interior decorative objects, associated with Italian artistic production very popular between the 60s and 80s.
Here is a detailed description of its main elements:
Aesthetic Characteristics
Subject and Pose: The animal is portrayed in a proud and composed pose, sitting on its hind legs with its torso upright. The head is slightly tilted, giving the figure a vigilant yet serene expression.
Coloration and Details: The coat features a base ochre/orange color that fades to white on the snout, chest, and the lower part of the body. The dark spots are created with a shading technique typical of high-quality ceramics, which avoids very sharp outlines for a more realistic effect.
The Face: The eyes are particularly expressive, painted in a yellow-amber tone with well-defined black pupils. The black glossy nose and the fine lines around the mouth enhance the realism of the feline.
Materials and Finish
Material: Italian Ceramics!!!!!!!!
Finish: The surface is entirely glazed (glossy), which gives the statue a strong reflectivity and a sense of preciousness to the touch. The glaze’s gloss highlights the color contrasts of the coat.
We do not ship to Germany!!!!!
