Cast in composite stone and perched on a wood base, the owl is caught mid-ruffle—one wing lifted in a sharp arc, the other ready to unfurl with quiet tension. The form is stylized and sculptural, with bold lines and a strong silhouette that suggest both elegance and power. Marked on the reverse, it’s a piece that refuses to simply sit pretty—it commands attention. Klara Sever, a Czech-born artist and influential mid-20th century sculptor, had a gift for distilling natural movement into modern form. Her work with Austin Productions helped bring high design into homes across America, and this owl is a perfect example: part creature, part totem, part modernist gesture. It’s not just decorative—it’s expressive, mysterious, and a little bit wild. A perfect blend of art, design, and presence. See less
