This pair of vintage cast iron "boxing hares" statues. Crafted with exceptional detail and realism, these heavy-cast figures capture two hares caught in mid-action, rearing up on their hind legs with paws raised in a playful or territorial sparring stance. Known as "boxing," this behavioral trait is beautifully stylized here, emphasizing their elongated, dramatic ears, expressive faces, and powerful hindquarters.
The statues feature an incredibly rich, weathered patina with layers of historic white-washed and grey finish over the solid iron structure. Over time, natural weathering has allowed dark streaks, oxidation, and subtle rust undertones to develop, adding a wonderful layer of depth, texture, and authentic antique character. Each hare stands firmly on an integrated, organically shaped cast iron base, ensuring stability for both indoor and outdoor placement. Whether nestled among lush garden foliage, flanking a formal entryway, or showcased in an eclectic sunroom, this sculptural pair makes a sophisticated statement in classic European, Hollywood Regency, or high-end estate-style decors.
Statue 1: 38.5" H × 15.5" W × 27" D
Statue 2: 31" H × 13" W × 28" D

The solid cast iron frames are structurally sound, heavy, and robust. The surfaces exhibit an attractive, heavily weathered distressed finish with widespread variations in color, including areas of paint loss, historical white/grey weathering, dark organic streaking, and minor surface rust oxidation. These cosmetic elements are stable and significantly enhance the antique character and authenticity of the pair. less
