About the Item

This set of three Italian zoomorphic animal sculptures was produced between the 1960s and 1970s and exemplifies the period’s interest in natural materials, sculptural abstraction, and artisanal craftsmanship. Executed in solid travertine stone, the sculptures feature warm beige tones and organic surface textures characteristic of authentic travertine. The animals are interpreted through simplified, stylized forms that emphasize mass, balance, and material presence rather than literal detail. Similar travertine animal sculptures have been attributed by auction houses and specialist platforms to Enzo Mari. However, in the absence of archival documentation, this set is offered as an anonymous example of Italian artisanal production from the period. The set comprises three pieces of varying dimensions, designed to function as a cohesive group. All are preserved in excellent vintage condition, free from chips, cracks, or repairs. Suitable for collectors of Italian mid-century decorative arts, these travertine sculptures offer both sculptural integrity and enduring decorative appeal. dimensions (cm). 13 × 4,3 × 2 / 11 × 4,3 × 2 / 9,5 × 4,3 × 2.
