Co.) of Roseville, Ohio. A departure from their traditional utilitarian stoneware, this figure famously graced the cover of the company’s 1973 catalog. The \"prowling\" pose is expertly sculpted with a heavy, detailed mane and a majestic facial expression, all finished in a brilliant high-gloss honey-tan and charcoal glaze. With its impressive scale and dynamic form, this lion serves as a sophisticated focal point for a library, executive desk, or mantle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions:\u003cbr\u003e14.5”W x 4”D x 5.5”H\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition\u003cbr\u003eExcellent Vintage Condition. This sculpture is structurally sound with no chips, cracks, or professional repairs. The high-gloss glaze remains vibrant and uniform. Consistent with authentic 1970s R.R.P. Co. pottery, the surface exhibits fine, age-appropriate glaze crazing (minute hairline cracks beneath the surface) that confirms its vintage status. The underside shows minor, expected shelf wear on the unglazed paw pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis prowling lion offers a rare opportunity to own an iconic piece of 1970s Ohio art pottery history, blending fierce Mid-Century modern form with the craftsmanship of a legendary American pottery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cherished Memories","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45906446057706,"sku":null,"price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/2228\/0938\/files\/IMG_8197.webp?v=1773879333","url":"https:\/\/cherished-memories-2612.myshopify.com\/products\/vintage-robinson-ransbottom-prowling-lion-art-pottery-sculpture","provider":"Cherished Memories","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
