Item description:

Vintage dress form mannequin presents a striking aesthetic, pairing a dark brown velvet-covered female torso with an ornate, neoclassical-style gold-gilt pedestal base. The base features a detailed sculptural figure reminiscent of a caryatid or classical bust, resting on a tiered square plinth. This piece serves as both a functional display for garments and a decorative sculptural element for a boutique, studio, or eclectic home interior. The velvet shows age-appropriate fading and wear, particularly around the neckline, and the connection point between the torso and base has been reinforced with tape. The gold finish on the base exhibits a rich patina with minor surface wear consistent with its vintage character.
