Description

This exquisite hand-sculpted crystal figurine is an original work by the acclaimed glass artist Karen Ladd. Part of her sought-after Wildlife collection, this piece portrays a Bighorn Sheep (Ram) standing atop a rugged mountain crag.

True to Ladd’s signature style, the sculpture is meticulously crafted from high-quality lead crystal using flameworking techniques without the use of molds. The ram features a beautifully textured satin-frosted finish on the body, which creates a soft, lifelike contrast against the brilliant, high-polished clear crystal of the spiral horns and the fluid, tiered base. The play of light through the sandblasted surfaces and the clear glass exemplifies Ladd's mastery of the medium.

As a handmade original, the piece possesses a unique character and fluid energy that distinguishes it from factory-produced crystal. It features the artist's etched signature on the base, confirming its authenticity and provenance for serious collectors of contemporary American art glass.
