A classical male torso in chalky whitewash, worn at the edges the way old statuary should be.
Adonis is a study of the male form cast in magnesia and set on a slim iron stand. The surface wears an antique whitewash that breaks away at the shoulders and hip to show warm terracotta beneath, so the piece looks rescued from an old atelier rather than bought new. The modelling across the chest and abdomen is deep enough to catch shadow under lamplight.
At around 26 cm on its base, it sits on a console, a stack of books, or a bathroom shelf without crowding what surrounds it. It also pairs with Cassius, its companion torso, for a gallery grouping, though each is sold on its own.
Why we love it
- ◆ Sculptural without being loud, the broken classical form brings an art-studio note to French and pared-back modern rooms alike.
- ◆ Antique whitewash over magnesia, with terracotta showing through the distressed edges and a raw iron stand to ground it.
- ◆ Freestanding on a round iron base, no fixing and no assembly, ready to place straight from the box.
- ◆ One of a companion pair, collect Adonis with Cassius for a symmetrical grouping, or let it stand alone as a single focal point.

How to style it
A few ways to place it:
- Set it on a console beside a mirror so the chalky white plays against the glass.
- Layer it with a candle holder and dried stems for a quiet vignette.
- Stand the pair on a shelf to bookend a row of vases.
- Group it with its companion Cassius torso for a matched, gallery-style display.
Stylist's Tip Place Adonis where side light can rake across the chest, near a lamp or a window. The shadow in the modelling is what gives the piece its presence after dark.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry cloth. Keep Adonis indoors and away from damp, as the whitewash and iron stand are not made for permanent outdoor exposure. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, which can lift the antique finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it suitable for outdoors?
It is made for indoor use. The whitewashed magnesia and iron stand will weather if left outside, so keep it sheltered.
What style of decor does it suit?
It works in French Provincial, classical, and pared-back modern rooms, anywhere a sculptural object earns its place.
How big is it?
About 26 cm tall on the stand and 13 cm wide, roughly the height of a wine bottle, so it reads as a tabletop piece rather than a floor sculpture.
Will mine look exactly like the photos?
Each piece is hand-finished, so the distressing, terracotta tones, and patina fall a little differently on every torso. No two are identical.
Does it make a good gift?
Yes. At this size and price it suits a housewarming, a wedding, or anyone drawn to classical and gallery-style decor.
Because Adonis is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture, and tone are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
