Ornament Golden Lion “andante”
The Venetian winged Lion andante (also known as the Standing or Passing Lion) stands on three legs, one on the Gospel Book, as the guardian of the Serenissima. The 24-karat gilded bronze captures the light and reflects it with a warm glow. The wings, outstretched yet harmonious, seem ready to rise in a gesture that belongs more to myth than matter. A symbol of strength, wisdom, and protection, this ornament is more than just an object: it is a fragment of Venice, an echo of its thousand-year history. Every curve, every smoothness, every shadow that slides across the metal speaks of the pride of the Lion of St. Mark, emblem of the city that never sleeps, suspended between water and sky. Perfect as a scenic presence as an ornament in a living room, a study, or a stately home, it conveys an aura of gentle authority: that of the Venetian palaces, the silent streets, the stones that have witnessed the passage of merchants, Doges, and travelers. An object that does more than simply decorate: it presides. Dimensions: 14 x 10 cm. The lion faces left. The lion can also be made in high-quality 925 silver upon request.
