ABOUT PRODUCTID 4221
This porcelain figurine of Terpsichore, the Greek muse of dance, was crafted in Czechoslovakia in the 1930s and exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of the Art Deco era. Made from high-gloss glazed porcelain in a warm ivory-white hue, the piece stands at 36.5 cm tall with balanced proportions (26 × 13 cm). Its surface is smooth and luminous, with soft modeling that emphasizes the feminine form—from gently contoured shoulders and flowing drapery to the precisely detailed lyre, Terpsichore’s classical attribute. The sculpture is artist-signed with a clear impressed mark, confirming both its authenticity and origin. The condition is excellent, with no visible damage, chips, or restoration; the glaze remains perfectly intact. This figure conveys the sense of lightness and movement characteristic of the 1930s, when Art Deco flourished in European interiors. The fluid folds of the drapery and the stylized hair, captured in porcelain, seem to freeze a moment of dance in time. The finely modeled lyre merges gracefully with the hands, creating a composition rooted in mythological tradition yet filtered through the modern sensibility of its age. The sculpture reflects a pursuit of harmony and beauty—qualities Art Deco sought to bring to everyday objects—offering a silent narrative of elegance and poise. The piece may be displayed on a low console or within a glass
