    Animal Art & Antiques

    From the tiniest of creatures, to the most magnificent of beasts, animals have proven themselves an indispensable subject for both the artist and antique craftsman. Here at Mayfair Gallery we have an outstanding selection of works depicting animals, from pairs of bronze birds and canines by the likes of Jules Moigniez, to stunning eagle sculptures by makers such as Apsrey of London and Vacheron Constantin.

    Each piece here is both a beautiful work of art and a wonderful display piece. Meissen porcelain, antique Chinese bamboo, and Viennese cold-painted bronze by the likes of Bergman: all these are present, and every piece below captures the spirit and vitality of the animal it depicts to great effect. Browse below to see the full range of our antique collection of animals and animalier.
