Description from the seller

Set of 4 Animal Sculptures in Travertine - 1970s
Splendid lot consisting of 4 minimalist animal sculptures in travertine marble, Tuscan artisanal production (Rapolano Terme) from the 1970s, historically attributed to the workshop of the Mannelli Brothers.
The set includes four iconic figures with a strong geometric impact:
Elephant stylized (circular shape with a slit) Dimensions: 7-7-2 cm
Camel / Dromedary: 7-10-2 cm
Rhinoceros: 5-8-2 cm
Hedgehog: 5-9-2 cm
The pieces are entirely authentic to the period and preserve the splendid, typical porous and tactile texture of natural travertine. Solid pieces with a beautiful patina of time.
Notes to mention: they show small signs of aging as in the attached photos.
Perfect as interior decor accents for interiors in Mid-Century Modern, Space Age, or Scandinavian styles.
