from the collection
Across sculpture, decorative arts and precious materials, the creatures gathered within the collection reveal humanity’s enduring fascination with the animal form.
From delicate birds in silver and gold to sculpted horses, mythical creatures and finely crafted animal figures in stone, porcelain or crystal, each work captures the beauty, mystery and symbolism long associated with the animal world. Whether majestic, delicate or mythical, these creatures transcend simple representation.
They become expressions of movement, instinct and poetry, where art gives lasting form to the living world and to the dreams it inspires.
In Buccellati’s animals, metal seems to breathe. Each form captures a fleeting moment of life, between precision and grace.
