About the Item

Originally a wall-mounted sculpture of a wild boar, dating to circa 1965, this French bronze can also be repurposed into a unique base for a table lamp. Surrounded by textured vegetation and partial forelegs, the boar’s face is well-detailed, with visible fur bristles and expressive eyes. The bronze has a great patina, with traces of verdigris dotting the golden metal. In addition to being a sculptural wall mount or a lamp base, our gilt bronze boar can also be presented as a decorative “trophy” in a library or living room.

Weathered Cast Stone Pig and Piglets from England, 20th C.

Located in Dallas, TX

Cast in England in the 1900s using reconstituted stone, this charming pig and four piglets statue has developed a lovely weathered patina from exposure to the elements. Reconstituted stone is organic stone that has been crushed into small bits (if you look closely, you can still see pebble inclusions within the casting). These fragments are then combined with cement and sometimes coloring pigments are added to the mix. The resulting aggregate is poured into a mold where it is left to harden. After the blend has set, the mold is removed, rendering a durable work of art. Our weathered cast stone pig...
