Decorative statuette in marble dust resin

A decorative statuette in marfinite (resin with marble dust), depicting two classical figures — a man and a woman — associated with ancestral symbols of abundance, fertility, and prosperity.

The figures hold grapes and wheat, elements that simultaneously evoke the Dionysian universe (wine, celebration, vitality) and agricultural imagery (harvest, continuity, plenitude). This symbolic fusion lends the piece a rich and timeless interpretation.

The composition features fluid drapery, dynamic posture, and elegant movement, typical characteristics of decorative works inspired by Greco-Roman art and European Neoclassicism.

This type of sculpture was particularly popular in Portugal and Italy between the 1970s and 2000s, a period when marfinite stood out for its ability to reproduce fine details and finishes that evoke marble or bronze, but with greater lightness and accessibility.

The dark finish of this piece, with a hue that imitates patinated bronze, enhances its sculptural presence and gives it a more solemn and decorative character.

Standing 54 cm high and 28 cm wide, it is a generously sized piece, ideal for classical settings, Mediterranean-inspired interiors, or collections dedicated to mythological and symbolic themes.

A piece that celebrates abundance — where classical form meets the power of symbol.
