We celebrate the first few days of LEO with a "parade" of leonine beauties—now in-stock at LEO Design.
This fabulous feline is not your everyday tin lion. Indeed, the incredible detail of the sculpting and casting—not to mention the wonderful painting—raises this LEO to a higher plain. The coiled energy of this recumbent lion, as he scrutinizes his domain, imbues a sense of of life to this beautifully-rendered sculpture. Made in the Twenties or Thirties, of finely-cast spelter, an alloy comprised primarily of zinc. Click on the photo above to learn more about it.
More handsome LEOs tomorrow and in the days to come.
