ABOUT PRODUCTID 15205
This Art Deco greyhound figurine, crafted by Laszlo Hoenig in Hungary during the 1930s, reflects the refined craftsmanship and modernist aspirations of the interwar period. Produced in white brass with elevated zinc content, its cool, silvery lustre echoes the tones of white gold. The dog’s elongated form is rendered with geometric restraint and clarity—distinctive for the Art Deco era—with extended legs, a dynamically arched tail, and minimalist details. The satin-polished surface mirrors its surroundings, amplifying a sense of visual depth, while smooth contours and a unified base reinforce the object’s fluid silhouette and high level of execution. The figurine is preserved in very good vintage condition, showing only superficial micro scratches typical of age, without dents or significant traces of wear. This greyhound conjures the spirit of the 1930s—a decade of rapid limousines, modern architecture, and fascination with motion. Its posture suggests cultivated restraint; yet, in its flowing lines lies a dynamic, forward-looking energy, as if the sculptor translated the era’s optimism and lightness into metal. The mirror-like brass surface catches and reflects ambient light, much like the foyers of old theatres or the salons of luxurious homes, casting a subtle but distinct echo of a time when animal forms became vessels of applied art and symbols of modernist confidence. The figurine would sit well atop a neutral-toned surface—a walnut console, marble tabletop, or geometric mid-century shelf. It may be paired with architectural prints, glass objets d’art, or minimalist lamps to emphasize its Art Deco pedigree. It would equally serve as a sharp accent in contemporary monochromatic interiors, or as a complement to a collection of figures inspired by the 1920s and 1930s, where light and reflective qualities highlight its enduring form.
