This piece is an impressive size measuring roughly 38" tall alone, 21" wide, and 6" deep.
When weighed on the scale it comes in just under 147lbs (see last photo) in weight.

The sculpture does come with a wooden stand, but please note that the stand has probably seen better days. The stand is still currently completely functional, you just need to be careful when using it now. With the weight of this piece, you may want to eventually consider reinforcing this existing stand, or having a new one created.
The stand adds an extra 2" in height.

The artwork appears to be in pretty nice vintage condition throughout. I did not see any large breaks, cracks, chips, gouges, etc... There might be a slight chance for very minor wear to be found, most likely in the way of a light scuff here and there. This piece was displayed in a covered outdoors area of a home, when I originally found & bought it. Therefore a very small amount of extra cleaning might possibly be needed in a spot or two. Nothing offensive whatsoever.
The first photo is was taken right after I hosed and wiped the stone down.
The rest of the photos were taken after the artwork had dried.
The chair in the photos is for scale and is not available for sale.
My apologies for any of the outdoor lighting glares or shadows that may show up in the photos.

Please view all of the photos carefully as they are part of the description, And ask any questions you have before buying.
Thank you for looking at this piece!
