Vintage Brass Eagle and Crystal Decorative Figurine

This decorative figurine features a soaring eagle in flight, meticulously crafted from solid brass with a warm, aged golden patina. The eagle is depicted with its wings fully extended and arched, showcasing detailed feather textures across the entire wingspan and tail. The bird's head is tilted downward in a focused hunting posture. The sculpture is mounted on a unique base consisting of three faceted, clear cut-glass or quartz-like crystals, which are nestled into a textured brass 'nest' or rocky outcrop. These crystals provide a brilliant contrast to the matte finish of the metal and elevate the eagle, creating a sense of suspended motion. The entire assembly rests upon a solid, oval-shaped brass plinth. In terms of condition, there is visible surface oxidation and minor tarnishing consistent with age, particularly on the top of the left wing and the base. The facets of the crystals appear intact without significant chipping. The style and construction are characteristic of Mid-Century Modern to Late 20th Century decorative arts, often produced by boutique giftware manufacturers or as high-quality cabinet curios. The craftsmanship is evident in the dynamic balance of the piece, allowing the heavy bird to appear as if it is floating above the crystalline base.
