Vintage Bronze Ballerina Statue After Edgar Degas Little Dancer 10” Mid Century

Elegant vintage bronze sculpture inspired by Edgar Degas Little Dancer of Fourteen Years. This mid-century cast beautifully captures the poise of a young ballerina, finished with a soft green patina skirt and mounted on a bronze base. Details: * Height: 10 inches (base included) * Weight: 1 lb 14 oz * Material: Hollow-cast bronze (lost-wax method) * Finish: Cold-painted green patina skirt * Era: Circa 1960s1980s * Condition: Good vintage condition with light age patina and minor surface wear (see photos). There is a small, visible crack on the lower left leg (see close-up photo). It appears stable and does not affect the statues display or structure. Common in mid-century lost-wax bronzes due to age and casting stress. * No foundry mark visible; cast in the style of Degas bronzes. * Rattling sound inside consistent with traditional lost-wax casting (core residue). A graceful mid-century art piece. Perfect for ballet enthusiasts, collectors, or elegant home décor.
