1991 Signed David Winter Castle in the Air. Measures 13 3/4" in height. Excellent condition. Does not come with box.
Capture the magic of English folklore with this authentic David Winter "Castle in the Air" miniature sculpture. Standing at an impressive 13 3/4 inches in height, this is one of the more imposing and vertical pieces from the collection, designed to represent a whimsical fortress perched precariously on a mountain crag. The piece features classic Tudor-style half-timbering, multiple stone chimneys, and a prominent conical-roofed tower that draws the eye upward.
This specific piece is a highly desirable find for collectors as it is hand-signed by David Winter himself on the base. Each detail, from the tiny individual roof shingles to the weathered stone texture of the foundation, is hand-painted to create a realistic, storied appearance. It serves as a magnificent centerpiece for a miniature village display, a sophisticated addition to a home library, or a standout gift for a dedicated David Winter enthusiast. This sculpture beautifully captures the "Old World" charm and architectural whimsy that defined the British cottage movement of the 1990s.
This item is vintage, over 30 years old. While it appears to be in excellent condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
