AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

“Tanara” is an elegant bronze sculpture inspired by Demetre Chiparus (1886–1947), one of the most recognisable sculptors associated with the Art Deco movement. The composition evokes the glamour, theatricality and refined aesthetic of the 1920s, capturing the decorative elegance that continues to make Art Deco sculpture so appealing to collectors.

The figure is distinguished by its graceful pose, carefully modelled forms and expressive silhouette. The hand-finished bronze surface enhances the sculptural details, while the rich patina lends warmth and depth to the composition. Together, these elements create a decorative piece that reflects the sophistication and distinctive visual language of Art Deco design.

Mounted on a polished marble base, the sculpture combines artistic elegance with a substantial presentation. Its distinctive proportions make it a striking addition to a private collection, an executive office or an interior inspired by the glamour of the Art Deco period.

This sculpture is a reproduction after Demetre Chiparus (1886–1947), offering a decorative interpretation inspired by the artistic legacy of one of the movement’s best-known sculptors.

The marble base is individually selected, so natural variations in colour and veining may occur. Each sculpture is hand-finished and may therefore display subtle individual characteristics.

Craftsmanship & Casting Technique Each sculpture is individually cast using the traditional lost-wax casting method (cire perdue) and meticulously hand-finished by skilled artisans. This prestigious technique is renowned for capturing exceptional detail, refined textures and the timeless beauty of fine bronze sculpture, ensuring that every piece possesses its own unique character. As a natural consequence of this artisanal casting process, small residual particles from production may occasionally remain inside the sculpture. This is an inherent characteristic of the traditional manufacturing technique and does not affect the quality, structural integrity, durability or artistic value of the artwork in any way.
