It is a great combination of minimalism and brutalism with a whimsical aesthetic. The lions are a semi translucent saffron yellow resin framed in brass with a comic stare in black. They are climbing a nail art style ladder set in a pebbled resin base. It’s quirky and kind of fabulous at the same time. It reminds me of Alexander Calder’s iconic ‘Circus’ wire art. No apparent artist or manufacturer’s mark.

Good vintage condition with some signs of age.

Measures 15” wide x 8.5” tall x 6” deep. less
