A refined set of three travertine animal sculptures depicting camels, handcrafted in Italy during the 1960s–1970s. Minimal forms, warm stone tones, and quiet sculptural presence define this timeless trio.
This set of travertine animal sculptures was handcrafted in Italy during the 1960s and 1970s and features three stylized camel figures carved from natural stone. Defined by simplified silhouettes and balanced proportions, the sculptures reflect a period when Italian decorative objects embraced abstraction, material honesty, and quiet expressiveness.
Each camel is individually carved in warm travertine, revealing subtle variations in tone and natural porosity that make every piece unique. The minimalist interpretation reduces the animal form to essential volumes, creating a sculptural language that feels both playful and architectural.
Often associated with the broader modern design sensibility of the period, these travertine animal sculptures sit comfortably between decorative object and small-scale sculpture. Their compact dimensions make them ideal for shelves, sideboards, desks, or curated interior compositions.
The set is preserved in excellent vintage condition, free from chips or cracks. Minor surface variations are inherent to the natural stone and consistent with age and handcrafted production.
