At 16.5 inches high, it has enough scale to hold its own on a console, library table, mantel, or pedestal without becoming overly formal. The dark bronze finish works especially well against pale plaster walls, old books, gilt frames, blue and white porcelain, or the lighter palette of a Palm Beach-inspired room.
