Striking vintage Italian ceramic sculpture by Ronzan, featuring a reclining mother leopard with her playful cub. Beautifully modeled and hand-painted in a rich golden glaze with dramatic black spotting, expressive faces, and wonderful sculptural detail. The large scale makes this an especially impressive statement piece.

Marked underneath "Made in Italy 3/755," identifying the model. This design is associated with the later Ronzan family production and dates to approximately the 1970s-1980s. The Ronzan family had an important history in Italian ceramics beginning with Giovanni Ronzan, who worked for the celebrated Lenci factory in Turin before establishing his own ceramic enterprise. The family continued producing highly decorative figurines and animal sculptures throughout the 20th century.

Dimensions:
22.5" long * 9" wide * 8" high

Condition:
Very good vintage condition with no chips that I can see. Please review photographs closely for overall condition and the natural characteristics of a vintage hand-finished ceramic piece.

A fabulous piece of 20th-century Italian decorative ceramics-bold, glamorous, slightly kitschy in the very best way, and perfect for a maximalist, Hollywood Regency, or eclectic interior.
