This 1930 figurine is an Art Deco ceramic deer rendered in a high-gloss maroon-red glaze. The sculpture features a stylised doe silhouette with streamlined ears and a slender neck, standing upon a base formed of stylised leaves. Golden gilded highlights accent the base and the eyes of the figure. The construction uses ceramic finished with a glossy monochrome glaze and metallic gilding. Measuring 32 cm high, 33 cm wide, and 9 cm deep, the piece sits upon a mantelpiece in a contemporary interior. The fine condition of the figurine is preserved without visible damage, showing a smooth reflective surface throughout the sculpture.

FAQs

Art Deco ceramic figurines are defined by streamlined, stylized forms, elongated proportion lines, and smooth, high-gloss or satin glazes. Designers stripped away intricate realistic details in favour of geometric elegance and fluid curves that captured modern movement.

These sculptures were typically slip-cast in earthenware or porcelain, allowed to dry, and finished with monochrome, drip, or crackle glazes. Highlight details were often applied using hand-painted gold leaf, enamel gilding, or metallic luster finishes before final firing.

Authentic pieces generally display period-appropriate manufacturing marks or impressed model numbers on the unglazed underside base. Collectors should examine glaze wear patterns, mold seam lines, and signs of hand gilding consistent with early 20th-century ceramic production techniques.

A stylized ceramic figurine works well as a focal accent on a sideboard, bookshelves, or a mantelpiece. Placing the object alongside clean-lined modern furniture or metallic accessories highlights its rich glaze and historic geometric silhouette.

Dust the item gently using a dry, soft microfibre cloth or a soft-bristled brush. Avoid abrasive chemical cleaners, harsh detergents, or soaking the piece in water, as liquid and rubbing can degrade vintage gold leaf and gilt highlights over time.
