Beautifully Big Figurines

I could not resist showing you these “Beautifully Big” figurines by Florence Studio in Italy. There are nineteen styles to choose from depicting images from the “classical age, myth, renaissance and everyday life carry humor together with elegance”. Here is the run down:

• Venus
• David
• Light Motion ( ballet dancer)
• Arrogance (woman with poodle)
• Vanity (woman with umbrella)
• Flora (woman in blue dress with flowers in her hair)
• Soul Melody (black woman singing)
• Fortune Gipsy [sic] (woman with full horn of plenty)
• Bacchus (man with goblet)
• The Gladiator
• The Temptation (Adam and Eve)
• Gallant Approach (man giving woman a flower)
• Ole! (Flamingo dancer in two piece with fan)
• Graceful Motion (woman in blue dress with hat riding a bike)
• Happy Harvest (woman in yellow dresses pushing wheelbarrow of flowers)
• Wind Swept (woman trying to keep her dress down on windy day)
• The Mermaid (woman in one piece striped swimsuit sitting in sand)
• The Relief (woman in yellow dress watching her dog do it’s business)
• Sweet Song (woman in read dress sing opera)

They are made of cast resin and hand painted. As far as I know these figurines are no longer available anywhere but you can try contacting the Florence Studio.
These three are my faves:

The Goddess of Love / Venus – 15 1/4″ high – $140

The Ole Dancer – 11″ high – $135

The Graceful Bike Rider – 9 3/4″ high – $140

This is one of my favorite collections. I wish it was still readily available.
