Pair of 2 Cranes by Anon Unknown, Bronze, Wood, Edition, 65cm high by 21cm wide by 18cm deep, Animals and Birds, Figurative sculpture

Pair of 2 Cranes is a bronze and wood sculpture measuring 65 cm high, 21 cm wide, and 18 cm deep. The piece depicts two cranes in natural, elegant poses, capturing a quiet moment of preening.

One crane stands on a single leg, its head bent down as it tends to its feathers, while the other balances on both legs with its neck arched backward, reaching toward its wing. Each bird rests on its own wooden platform, giving them stability while creating a subtle sense of separation yet harmony.

The forms are smooth and polished, emphasizing the gentle curves of the cranes’ elongated necks and slender bodies. Detailed carvings along the wings and feathers add texture and realism. The natural dark bronze colouring enhances the depth of the sculpture, highlighting the contours and flowing lines of each crane.

Through posture, proportion, and careful detailing, the sculpture conveys both grace and calm energy. The interaction of the two birds suggests balance and connection, while the polished surfaces and carved textures guide the eye across the composition. Pair of 2 Cranes celebrates the beauty of these elegant birds, combining realism and artistry to create a refined, timeless piece that draws viewers into its serene, natural world.
