ABOUT PRODUCTID 16091
This miniature porcelain Capricorn, produced by the esteemed Royal Dux manufactory in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s, encapsulates modernist mid-century sensibilities.

The base merges seamlessly with the body, enhancing the impression of an unbroken monolith. The piece is preserved in excellent collector’s condition with its original high sheen, free of chips, cracks, or evidence of restoration; the surface shows virtually no signs of age or wear.

The sculpture communicates a language of harmony and economy, inviting appreciation of its sculptural discipline and timeless clarity.
