1994 'Black Panther' by Sue B Hand-Painted Ceramic Figure
$61.00
Vintage Ceramic Handpainted Black Panther Figure. Sue B 94 is carved on the bottom. Measures about 6" in height by almost 11" long. Excellent condition.
This striking ceramic black panther is a masterful blend of Mid-Century style and 1990s artisanal craft. Hand-painted and signed by the artist "Sue B" in 1994, the figure features a high-gloss jet-black finish that emphasizes its powerful, muscular silhouette. Unlike many vintage panthers, this piece is uniquely posed on a meticulously textured grey rock base, providing a rugged, naturalistic contrast to the cat's sleek, reflective surface. Measuring nearly 11 inches in length, it serves as a bold statement piece that captures the predatory grace and timeless allure of the great cats.
This figure is a perfect addition to a Study or a gallery space influenced by Hollywood Regency or Space Age aesthetics. Its moody, dark palette and dramatic form allow it to anchor a mantle or bookshelf, especially when paired with metallic accents or low, ambient lighting. The 1994 carving on the base ensures its origin as a late-century collectible, bridging the gap between traditional animalier sculpture and modern home decor. It remains in excellent condition, with the glossy finish perfectly preserved and no chips to the delicate ears or tail.
This item is vintage, over 30 years old.
