Angelical moments
$875.00
There’s a gentle, protective calm in this porcelain tableau: a broad, placid polar bear carries two small cubs across her back, their rounded forms curled close as if sharing the same quiet warmth. The sculpture’s split finish is immediately striking—the upper half keeps a soft matte white that reads like fur, while the lower half dissolves into glossy, blue-green glazes that suggest water lapping around the bear’s legs. That horizontal shift in surface feels like a visual breath, quietly evoking both land and sea and giving the piece a serene, almost dreamlike presence. The cubs’ simple, affectionate poses make the work feel intimate rather than monumental, and the careful modeling of paws and shoulders gives it a pleasing sense of weight and balance. Placed where its calm personality can be seen and appreciated, the figurine brings a contemplative, tender note to a room without needing words.
The Artwork
This creation belongs to the Underwater collection, an emotional and sensorial tribute to life and the primeval element from which it came: water. It is a demonstration of how art, through the unique expression of porcelain, connects us with nature and celebrates it. Thanks to our artists’ consummate control of sculpture and decorative techniques developed specifically for these pieces, Underwater offers us an incomparable vision of the animal kingdom blended in with nature. The perfection of forms is combined with stunning decoration in degraded blue tones that achieve a quasi-real effect of immersion in water. The end result, as we can see in this majestic rhino, are contemporary creations not only with wonderful decorative potential but also capable of captivating us with their message and with their magnificent handcrafted elaboration in porcelain.
