This charming ceramic figurine of Gemini is a successful example of figural sculpture from the Art Deco period of the 1920s. It originates from Czechoslovakia and depicts twin figures in a harmonious composition. Such a pose is typical for this astrological sign. The stylization of the figures and the delicate colors reflect the era and the effort to combine modern design with classical motifs.
Although the author remains unknown, the level of detail and the quality of the material show the origin in a well-established ceramic workshop or factory. The object remains in the original condition. This fact is very valuable because ceramics is a fragile material. The figurine represents an ideal small centerpiece. Its symbolism and refined style will perfectly complement any collection of interwar art.
