This brass greyhound figurine exemplifies German decorative craftsmanship from the 1960s, rendered in the mid-century modern style. The 21 cm long and 15 cm high dog is cast from solid brass with a semi-gloss finish, displaying a natural patina and color variations that form a subtle gradient—from a warm, golden-yellow hue to darker, oxidized areas, especially along the base and lower body. The realistic style is marked by finely modeled details: sculpted musculature, defined facial features, a shaped tail, and a distinct collar. The rectangular base with rounded corners mimics textured ground. The surface shows authentic signs of age such as small spots and patina, but no damage or repairs. The figurine is signed and weighs 2 kg. Condition: very good, with genuine patina characteristic of the era. This object carries the voice of the 1960s—a period when craftsmanship embraced the organic form and the noble quality of material. Over time, the brass acquired depth and a gentle sheen unattainable in new creations. The greyhound, with its lowered head and alert posture, evokes movement, vigilance, and aristocratic elegance. The shimmering surface catches light, offering a different narrative from every angle, while the subtle casting irregularities underscore the individuality of handmade vintage metalwork. The figurine can be placed on a bookshelf or console table
