One figure wears a deeper olive and golden-green tone, while its companion is softer and more muted, a pale sage-khaki that gives the pair a pleasing, natural contrast. Small worn patches of gray show through the coating, adding a lived-in, weathered quality. The faces, ears, and sturdy legs are finished in a lustrous silvery tone, with sculpted detail in the muzzles, brows, and cloven hooves that offers a refined counterpoint to the shaggy bodies.

Whimsical yet sophisticated, the pair suits a mantel, console, sideboard, coffee table, or hearth, or a sunroom, entry, or garden room, where they bring pastoral charm to Rustic, Organic Modern, Farmhouse, Country, and Eclectic interiors. They pair well with aged wood, stone, linen, and potted greenery. To care for them, dust gently with a soft brush or a low-suction vacuum attachment, and spot clean the silvered surfaces with a dry cloth. Avoid water, harsh cleaners, and prolonged direct sunlight, which may fade the textured coating. Each figure measures 12.75 inches wide, 4.25 inches deep, and 8.75 inches high.

Presented in very good condition, the sheep show a consistent original finish with minor patina appropriate to their age. The textured covering is intact, with slight discoloration and small thin areas, as is typical of natural-looking materials. Both figures are structurally sound, with no visible repairs or significant damage. Please review the photographs closely, as they form part of the condition report.
