ABOUT PRODUCTID 1727
This porcelain figurine, designed by Elly Storbach in the 1940s for the Czech manufacturer Royal Dux, exemplifies decorative sculpture in the spirit of late Art Deco. It depicts a nude female figure in a relaxed, reclining pose, marked by elongated proportions and flowing contours characteristic of the era's style. The surface features a warm, natural flesh tone with a subtle, glossy glaze that softly reflects light. The hair, painted in a medium brown, is detailed to emphasize movement and volume, while facial features—red lips and a gentle blush—attest to the precision of craftsmanship. The base is stylized as rippling water in creamy white, accented with gilding, and finished with a deep cobalt blue rim with a high-gloss sheen. Dimensions: height 16 cm, length 20 cm, width 10.6 cm. Condition: no damage, all details and gilding original and intact. The form of this figurine echoes the voice of the 1940s, when Art Deco evolved towards softness and femininity without losing its clarity of line. Its pose reflects a post-war longing for tranquility and order—the elongated body relaxed upon a wave-like base, as if resting after turbulent times. The gilded accents and contrasting cobalt rim evoke a world that, despite its upheavals, retained a touch of luxury and attention to detail. The figurine can be displayed on a console or shelf in the living room, paired with geometric vases from the 1930s and 40s or simple mirrors in chromed frames. It fits well within classic Art Deco interiors but can also serve as a balanced contrast in modern, minimalist spaces. Consider combining it with glass, marble, or lacquered wood elements to highlight its decorative yet timeless quality.
