About the Item
Bring charm, craftsmanship, and a touch of British wit to your interior with this mid-century leather rhinoceros, attributed to Dimitri Omersa for Abercrombie
Fitch. Handcrafted in England circa 1960, this sculptural piece is made from rich brown leather, stitched and stuffed into the form of a stylized rhino, complete with rounded horns, upright ears, and expressive curves.
Originally designed as decorative footstools or whimsical objets d’art, Omersa’s animal figures have become highly collectible, admired for their sturdy construction and distinct personality. This example showcases beautiful patina and surface wear consistent with age, adding to its vintage appeal.
In excellent vintage condition with scuffing, fading, and wear as expected from age and use. Structurally sound and full of character.
Whether displayed in a study, children’s room, or beside a fireside chair, this leather rhino is sure to start conversations and bring a sense of play to any space.
