Measuring 13" W x 26" D x 23" H each, one lion faces left and the other right, creating a balanced display indoors or out. Inspired by ancient guardian sculptures from Mesopotamia to Rome, recumbent lions became a hallmark of British and French garden design by the 18th century. Symbolizing quiet strength and protection, these statues were traditionally placed at grand entrances. Durable and beautifully aged, they bring historic character and timeless elegance to any space. Wear consistent with age and use. See less
