A set of four garden ornaments comprising various figures and animals. The collection features a large standing female cat figure. Also included is a medium-sized figure of a frog or toad depicted crouching on a rounded integral base, a seated owl figure constructed from a textured conglomerate stone with visible aggregate, and a small tortoise with carved shell detailing. Each piece is made from cast reconstituted stone or conglomerate material. There are no visible maker marks; a small white adhesive label is present on the neck of the female figure but the text is illegible.
Condition report:
All items exhibit extensive weathering, lichen growth, and moss, consistent with prolonged outdoor exposure. The frog ornament shows surface pitting and softening of detail. The conglomerate owl ornament has moss growth in the recesses and a naturally irregular surface. The tortoise shows surface weathering and loss of fine detail to the shell and head.
