Pair of African Verdigris Bronze Leopards
DE-COR | Globally InspiredAn exquisite pair of 20th century Benin bronze leopard figures, a testament to the regal power and artistry of the Benin kingdom. Crafted with precision and reverence, these leopard figures stand as a tribute to the Oba, the symbol of royal authority, portrayed through the magnificent leopard motif. The aged verdigris patina gracefully adorns these sculptures, adding a touch of antiquity to their already majestic presence.
