About the Item

A striking and highly unusual Mid-Century Modern dolphin sculpture, masterfully combining a solid brass head, fins, and tail with an organically formed antler body. Whether crafted from natural antler or resin made to emulate it, the contrasting materials create a sculptural composition that is both sophisticated and unexpected. The graceful curves and fluid lines capture the movement of a dolphin in motion, giving the piece a sense of energy and elegance. Beautifully balanced, it is equally compelling as a standalone sculpture, a substantial paperweight, or a distinctive bookend. A conversation piece with exceptional visual appeal, this rare decorative object complements Mid-Century Modern, coastal, and contemporary interiors alike. Its sculptural quality and unique combination of materials make it an eye-catching addition to a desk, bookshelf, console, or cocktail table.
