This piece strongly recalls the sculptural and functional aesthetic popularized by designers such as Claude Lalanne, where utilitarian objects take on natural forms. The structure is entirely handmade in wrought iron, which displays a deep, original patina resulting from its age and use. The ram's body is robust, with curved horns and a stylized silhouette that conveys a rustic yet sophisticated character.

The set integrates fireplace tools, also forged from hand-wrought iron. These elements hang from hooks incorporated into the ram's body, forming part of the overall composition and maintaining aesthetic coherence. The entire sculpture rests on a solid rectangular wooden base, providing stability and a warm material contrast to the coldness of the iron. This is a functional piece that also serves as a distinctive sculptural object, suitable for complementing a fireplace with a focus on brutalist or 20th-century design. See less
