This pair of brass gazelle figurines from the 1970s exemplifies vintage decorative design with clear influences from Art Deco and modernist aesthetics. Both figures are cast from solid brass in a warm, satin gold hue—surfaces are smooth and gently reflective, imparting a restrained sheen that highlights their minimalist profile. One gazelle is captured in a dynamic leap, its body elongated and legs extended; the other stands upright, head and slender horns reaching upward. The bases, irregular yet softly rounded, provide stability while maintaining a sense of visual lightness. The stylization is free of excess ornament, focusing attention on the flowing forms and precise lines characteristic of decorative craftsmanship from this era. The original brass finish features subtle signs of natural patina and only minimal traces of age, typical for well-cared-for vintage pieces. Condition is excellent, with only minor surface marks—no evidence of damage or restoration. These brass gazelles evoke a spirit of discovery from the 1970s—a decade when decorative sculpture embraced a renewed sense of modernity, and dynamic line became a symbol of everyday lightness. In their forms, one can sense an echo of Art Deco: pared-back simplicity, yet an optimistic undertone. The smooth brass surface captures light like a soft afternoon glow—no unnecessary embellishment, just the outline of movement paused for an instant, inviting the viewer to
