Era / Decade
Modern (2010s-2020s)
Material
Cast resin with a metallic gold finish. The faceted/hammered texture indicates a mold-made mass-produced piece rather than hand-carved metal.
Condition
Good. There appears to be some minor surface wear and possible dust in the crevices; some finish loss is visible on the 'hammered' edges where the lighter resin base might be showing through.
Demand Level
Moderate. Yoga and dog-themed decor have a steady niche audience, particularly for gift-giving and home staging.
