Griffin Sculpture

Drawing inspiration from the mythical guardians that adorned the palaces, cathedrals, and heraldic traditions of the ancient world, the Griffin Sculpture embodies strength, vigilance, and enduring grandeur. Cast in brass with a rich brûlée finish, the majestic creature is enhanced by intricately detailed wings featuring dyed red penshell inlay, creating a dramatic contrast of color, texture, and light. Resting atop a richly veined stone base, the sculpture possesses both architectural presence and collector-worthy character. Blending mythology, artistry, and exceptional materials, it reflects Maitland-Smith's enduring passion for objects that inspire imagination and admiration.
