The piece features a gracefully curved neck, elongated body, and an open vessel form suitable for use as a planter, cachepot, or purely as a sculptural object.

The bronze has developed a rich, dark patina over time, with subtle tonal variations that enhance its organic presence. A small, stable hairline crack is present at the neck joint, visible upon close inspection. This does not affect the structural integrity of the piece and is consistent with age and casting stress in vintage bronze objects. Overall condition remains very good, with strong visual impact and sculptural integrity.

This swan planter works beautifully in both traditional and modern interiors—equally compelling on a mantel, console, or garden-inspired vignette. See less
