Apparently moulded in polymer, but at first glance appearing to be carved marble, this outstanding miniature of a lion is small and light enough, at a mere ten pounds, to grace a table or a shelf. We’ve Googled this piece, but no other examples were found. A striking copy of high quality.

Probably Continental, early 20th century

Base: 15 ½” X 8 ¼”; Height: 11”

Price: $245
