Striking Art Deco Mantel Garniture Set w/ Deer

This exquisite Art Deco garniture set comprises three pieces: a central decorative sculpture and a pair of matching lamps with three lights each. The central piece features a delicately crafted pair of deer, cast in spelter, with finely detailed bodies and gracefully curved horns made from real horn. They are set against an elegant backdrop of stylized trees carved from green onyx, while the base, in rich brown onyx, grounds the composition with warmth and depth. Flanking the central sculpture, the two lamps each have three arms and are adorned with matching materials, beautifully echoing the geometric aesthetic and refined craftsmanship of the period.

Art Deco, a movement that flourished in the 1920s and 1930s, emphasized symmetry, stylized natural forms, and luxurious materials. This set exemplifies the era’s fascination with exotic materials and dynamic compositions, often drawing inspiration from nature. The deer motif, with its delicate poise and fluid movement, brings an undeniable grace and charm to the ensemble, adding a whimsical yet sophisticated touch to any décor. Frequently depicted in Art Deco sculpture, deer symbolized elegance and modern refinement, making them a popular decorative motif of the time. The juxtaposition of metal and stone is characteristic of the era’s most sought-after designs, showcasing the skilled artistry that defined Art Deco interiors.

This striking three-piece garniture set is perfect for enhancing a mantel, sideboard, or console table in both classic and contemporary interiors. The warm tones of the onyx and marble contrast beautifully with the darker hues of the metal, making it a distinctive statement piece in any space. The lamps not only provide a soft, atmospheric glow but also enhance the sculptural quality of the central piece, bringing it to life with light and shadow. Whether styled in a vintage-inspired setting or used as a bold accent in a modern home, this ensemble embodies timeless elegance and the refined artistry of the Art Deco movement.
