About the Item

These unique side tables could have been created as a decorative piece for a private residence, a hotel, or a gallery. It certainly reflects an interest in wildlife or exotic themes 20th-century creation, possibly influenced by Art Deco or other decorative movements. These heavy bronze pieces feature a dynamic and somewhat dramatic representation of two crocodilian reptiles, possibly a crocodile and an alligator, engaged in what appears to be a struggle or "wrestling" match. The sculptural base supports best a circular glass tabletop. The choice of these animals may symbolize strength, primal instincts, or the wildness of nature. These make for very interesting pieces that would certainly add a dramatic flair to any room.
