Love her🥹
Love her so much. I just wish I could get her in a much bigger size too. Shipped very quickly and it was well packaged. It’s very lightweight but durable.
Great value for the money. Perfect addition to my bedroom.

Small but detsil oriented
Color: Laocoon 5.5"
I saw this originally in a render online and fell in love with the fluid motion and emotion within the piece. The tale is tragic, if you want to read it, but this is a beautiful little take on it. Pleased by its size, quality, weight and the detail is impeccable. He chills on my work desk.

Elegant little piece

Simply so perfect. It adds a hint of elegance to any space. I did notice a tiny crack by his ear while taking pictures, still it's barely noticeable. I think it gives it character!
